    Wouldn't it be a bit closer to fair to compared the price of OS X to XP Professional rather than the Personal edition?



    Even then, the only way to get away from Windows annoying tracking-your-hardware-changes licensing, and having to phone customer service to ask "Pretty please, can I still run my copy of Windows"?, is to have a corporate site-license copy (or an illegal hacked version).

    I wonder what the percentage of users with Professional vs Home is? I'm sure there must be some stat available, but at 2:00 AM, I'm not in the mood to try to figure out how to do a search for it.
