eric, you may not be a pirating warez-hound, but you are most certainly breaking your license agreements (assuming you have them) for all those products and you are breaking the law (copyright law). Pick one license agreement and read it. In all …

[quote] Without a clear advantage in ease of use, snazzy design may be all the iMac can offer. Sounds to me like all of his criticisms of the new iMac could easily be applied to the original, CRT iMac. So, even if his conclusion (quoted above)…
