Just wondering how many of us are out there. How long have you been a Mac user and what are you using at the moment?

I don't have an Intel Mac yet. I have been thinking about getting an iMac for awhile. My mom has had a Windows XP machine since 2002, and I have an iBook G4... we would both be happy if we had an iMac to replace her computer.

I looked at the iMac and but thought I'd just supply my own monitor and keyboard. Call me old fashioned, but integral units like that make me a bit nervous...like my dvd/vcr unit that the dvd player part died on it 
I actually have the smaller processor, but this thing really hums compared to my old compaq. My wife and I were goofing around it this last night and found a speech option where ya highlight a passage and it reads it to ya...pretty neat.
Wonder what else I'll find if I keep poking around?

I know exactly what you mean about that speech program. We have all Windows machines here at work, but there is a manager who bought an iMac for his office and they were trying that feature out one day, I just heard a ton of laughing from their office and they were all around the iMac.

Oh very nice. How do you like that? I just got an iBook last year, otherwise I would love to get a MacBook. Maybe we'll get an iMac for my mom and I to share... I'm hoping to move away from home and go back to school in September though.

I seem to remember helping you decide to get your iBook!
Sadly, my PowerBook died recently. My friend in FL has it now and he's a Mac guru. He says the hard drive and possibly the firmware is toast. He's gonna have a guy he knows look at it that knows even more about Macs than he does to try and fix it. If not, hopefully I'll be a Mac user again some day! I'd looooove a MacBook. *drools*

I am really considering going away from home to go to school in Newfoundland so I don't think we'll be getting an iMac... but maybe a MacBook for me!
They have courses January 22, February 19, March 19, August 6 and September 3. I am planning on going in August so I'll be able to have enough time to prepare.

No, I don't make reports or anything... and when I did I would use my mom's computer mostly.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I was going to buy an iMac back in like October/November and never did, and then decided to wait until after MacWorld.
And now I've applied to go to school in Newfoundland, taking a computer program so I'll probably want to get an Intel Mac so I have something with Windows for homework and stuff.
I called my high school to send my transcript over and then I also have to write an "admission test"... and it has MATH questions! So I'm a bit stressed.
