The only professional things it has are movie and music related. ALL OF WHICH ARE AVAILIBLE ON PC today, not few years ago.

I hope you tell your girlfriend that you dont mind her looks.
Now I am sure you will bitch again about the lack of the floppy disk parallel, vga, modem & serials ports on Macs. These things are being phased-out industry-wide. Apple started the trend to drop these ancient interfaces due for cost consideration & the lack of demand from the general public. It just takes the rest of the PC industry longer to follow lead to drop these interface as well. In the PC industry old tech gets chucked out on the ultra-high end of the market.
I can appreciate these interfaces in the retail industry but it is high time that everyone moved to USB or FW. These interface are faster, more reliable & are really plug-n-play.
