I agree with you there about Apple's own DRM issues... I use a Mac for the open source stuff available to me. I don't buy new ones, but old ones.

Oh, and a glimpse of the future of the Mac.

Some of the features shown in that video are already available on the iPhone. Word has it that Apple will have laptops with VR screens by about 2009 or so. They already have the patents filed and the manufacturers are hard at work producing the new screens. The mouse as we know it is going to die very soon. I really love how when the guy starts a typing motion, a virtual keyboard flies up to meet his fingers. You can even see the new OSX dock in the film, remarkably similar to the current one, and many of the features available already on the iPhone, like the ability to pinch and pull virtual objects and window handles. Virtual clay will change animation and modeling as we know it.

It is going to take Windows about 20 or 30 years to catch up with all of this, and even then, it will be a poor imitation.
