actually i said that all wintel boxes are 5% different from each 
other. and my point was that the apple PC will be no better or worse 
than the variation of PCs already extant. in grand scapegoating 
tradition, i can expect any compatibility issues to be trumpeted, 
while the fact that the same issues show up on 30% of other mfrs' PCs 
will go unreported, this being "normal" in the windows world.
