LOL, well....it depends. Yes, there are much better drinks out there...but it's normally taken as a shot and usually only once in a night although i have done more at times (can make some folks act a little strange). It tastes, depending on who you ask, like black licorice or Nyquil. This is the only other "drink" i've had it in, a California Surfer....1.5oz. Jager, 1.5oz coconut rum, and 5oz. pineapple juice.

As for the display card or other hardware on the Mac, there's no need to replace anything for a very long time. Mac hardware holds very well for years to come.
Besides, the way I see it, Macs are the BMW's of computers
Anyway...Mac or Windows...to each his own.

Ummm...lol...sorry my friend but I think you're mistaking the OS for the Intel chips. Macs are running the Intel processors now, which have nothing to do with the OS. The Mac OS is Unix based while Windows is DOS, it has always been that way and it still is. So saying Mac is now Windows is like saying an apple is now an orange

o sorry what I mean is both OS are the same as in working around the meun. same funtion. but I must say the mac OS is much more stayable, windows is crap.
Mac is only good for 2 things I think,
1. design and looks
2. 2D graphic
there are many things not for with a mac and that is
1. ripoff for the speed
2. can not do good 3D graphic, that is why the display card will never have to be upgraded, only good for 2D only.
3. can not play BF2 or CSS no good for gaming.
Many home users buy mac is good cos nothing can go wrong with a mac, unlike a PC.
but PC is much more powerfull. thats why loads of bug

Even if the PC hardware has faster render engines(which I doubt because I am still using Maya and Zbrush on my Mac and have not noticed a difference since both my PC and Mac have almost the same hardware specs), I get a lot more work done on the Mac because I don't have the problems that I use to with PC.
I'm not much a game player so I can't judge either in that department. But in my personal experience my Mac has been a breath of fresh air. I only wish I had switched sooner, would've spent a lot less time and money.
But like I said, to each his own. Use what works for you
Take care
