Your definately right about that.. theres MILLIONS of peices of software for Wintel that is just pure CRAP!

The several options you do have on OSX are all high quality and superior to the crap you can get on windows,

Hmm lets have a look at the main things people use:

Web Browsers:
- Safari, Firefox, IE, Netscape, Opera, +shitloads more
Mail:
- Mail, Thunderbird, Eudora, MS Entourage +shitloads more
Trillian:
- Proteus, Adium

Lets take a look at the other usual suspects..

Microsoft Office.. better on mac
Adobe Everything.. better on mac

Pretty much everything that is worth caring about.. better on mac!

Games..
Well most blockbuster games make it to the mac, for EG my girl is playing WoW on her powerbook 12" at the moment.. but isnt that what my Xbox/ps2/psp is for?

Who gives a fuck about having a crapload of shit software options when you can have a smaller and very high standard of quality apps for your OS to choose from?

Oh and running a unix command line natively is simply awesome.
