Furthermore, my eMac wasn't too expensive.. It cost about a grand.. my PC using friend spent 2 grand on his HP.. so what.. he's plagued by hellish viruses all the time and his printer doesn't work. Yay. What a great market! You think these people are really as obsessed with digital media as Bill Gates says they are? These people just want to have the computer run for a week without crashing! And you wonder why the Media Center PC isn't selling.. .. Yes.. I said it. The HP guys are hawking iPods to PC users only and their sales (160,000 for a month) are disturbing. Could it be that most of the people interested in playing with digital media are using Macs?! I guess technically you can’t call iTunes the loss leader since..
