I have been considering this, but I have a hard time justifying the high
price of mac hardware. OSX is REALLY interesting overall. Would LOVE to
see OSX for the PC.

Interesting, and a damned good reason to give it a shot. Think I might have
to give it a shot. Regarding using gimp, I absolutely agree. Admittedly, I
haven't given gimp much of a chance in my short trials of it, but being an
adobe junkie for 10 years is just a hard thing to break away from. Wouldn't
mind seeing the flash ide on linux as well. Then I'd have about no use for
xp, besides maybe for a couple games I never really have time to play.
