Didn't read all of that but you can do all that stuff inside OSX. Doesn't feel take up lots of space and doesn't slow anything down and you pay one nice price and get EVERYTHING
there are plusses to both OS's it's just that OSX has more and Tomi is to just trying to justify all the money he spent on his comp and extra monitor and thinks buying a new laptop will make it all better.
ps. Sorry for any stupid typos or anything, doing this on my *Apple* iPod.
