Every year, the mac gets closer and closer to being a PC, more buttons on your mouse, microsoft software for office, and heck, now even Intel CPUs... I am trying to think what the next good PC thing is that Mac will try to take over and claim as their own.

Macs are very good machines, no doubt about it, but the price difference just doesn't justify the snooty attitude mac users all seem to have about their stuff.
