Why Apple? All those reasons you
never bought a Mac, not true anymore.

1. It just works.
How much time have you spent troubleshooting your PC? Imagine a computer designed by people who hate to waste time as
much as you do. Where all the hardware and software just works, and works well together. Get a Mac and get your life back.
 2. You can make
amazing stuff.
Every Mac comes with iLife '06, a suite of software that transforms your photos,
music, and video into all kinds of projects. Make high-quality websites, photo books, DVDs, songs, slideshows,
music CDs, calendars, cards, prints, podcasts, music videos, documentaries, and more. 
3. Design that turns heads.
You won't want to hide your Mac in a corner of the den. You'll want it front and center in your life. The Apple
style shows in every detail, from its sculpted surfaces to its gorgeous Mac OS X graphics.
4. 114,000 Viruses? Not on a Mac.
Mac OS X was designed with security in mind. Windows just wasn't built to bear the onslaught of attacks it suffers every
day. A Mac offers a built-in firewall, doesn't advertise its existence on the Net, and isn't compromised within an hour of being turned on.
5. Next year's OS today.
Since Mac OS X engineers aren't busy damming a flood of viruses, they have the time to think up amazing new
technology. Like Dashboard widgets, mini-applications offering a world of capabilities just a keystroke away. Or a built-in RSS news reader.
 6. The latest Intel chips.
Intel Core Duo processors put you on the cutting edge. In fact, a Mac with an Intel chip is so fast it
surprises even longtime Windows pundits, who keep running benchmarks again and again. Results? Fast. Fast. Yup, still fast.
7. Instant video chats.
Setting up a video chat with the people next door — or across the globe — should be as simple as picking up the phone. On
a Mac, you just click an icon to have a four-way video chat in a full-screen window with amazing clarity and special effects.
8. More fun with photos.
On a Mac, you don't need any extra software to make a photo book. You don't
have to leave your photo software to visit a separate website and wait for forms to load. All you need is a camera and a Mac.

1. Know iTunes? You know the Mac.
You'll recognize features like library collection, playlist  arrangement, and instant
search in many Mac programs. So you're something of a Mac expert already.
2. You can take it with you.
A Mac can open most of your files with the right software. Most popular applications for Mac and PC use the same file formats, making it simple to
exchange documents with coworkers or move existing files from a PC to a Mac.
3. Yes, Macs run Microsoft Office.
Microsoft Office for Mac OS X gives you Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, all with familiar features and the same shortcut commands. And when you need
to use it for collaborative work, Office for Mac connects to Microsoft Exchange servers.
4. No, Macs aren't slow.
The latest Intel Core Duo processors put other chips to shame. And a Mac just loves that second core, since Mac OS
X has known about multiple processors from the start. Try burning a DVD while watching a TV show on iTunes.
5. No, you dont have to buy
new stuff.
Your printer, camera, keyboard, and mouse will work with a Mac. PCs and Macs can usually share
peripherals if they connect via USB, FireWire, or Bluetooth, three industry standards built into every new Mac.
6. Yes, you can even run Windows.
So you have to run just that one thing, or maybe your office requires it. No PC? No problem. New software helps the latest
Intel-based Macs run Windows applications.
