if you mean by 'computing' is malware, viruses, spyware, crashes, BSoD, etc etc then my goodness I'm happy with my Mac.

If instability, insecurity & ugly are things I cant do with a Mac then great.

Specially the P4, that does thermal shutdown, or reduces speed until temperature goes down.
It sure looks so, I remember the old tomshardware video, where they also removed heatsinks and none of CPUs exploded.

Now with 2.16GHz ($2800), 2.0GHz ($2500), and 1.83GHz ($2000) processors. Not too shaby at all.
