Always having random camp Mac geeks hit on me?

Alright, that IS an argument, but it'd make one damn expensive date ;P

Well, 160GB of images of CDs long lost to time and housemovings
representing 15 -ish years of computer gaming say that my primary
computer stays a Windows machine for a while yet, if only because iMacs
just don't come with graphics cards beefy enough. Different needs, money
not growing on trees (for custom configs), all that. Gimme an OS X that
will dual-boot from my box, and I'll very happily give a whirl and / or
pay for a licence.

I wasn't trying to jab at the quality of Apple hardware or software,
just at elitist "you can't play with us because you don't have the
Malibu Barbie with rollerskates" attitudes, and tried to give Ed
something to ward off the peer pressure his notebook reputedly suffered
from ;P

And for what it's worth, for my purposes, the performance of the
one-click installer is Good Enough (tm). Purposes being the odd personal
app to keep track of stuff on backup DVDs etc.
