Erm...yes. You are right, if i follow the logic...;)
What i mean is, that i am dealing with PC´s and it´s flaws now since 
those came out, 20 years ago. And i´ve never seen a Notebook operate 
without a flaw, neither at presentations, where only Powerpoint ran 
on the Notebook, or at musical events, where the musician(s) were 
using a PC notebook. Windows is simply not stable enough, and it 
won´t any more stable with XP. 
Apple computer have their own flaws too, but AFAIK do they operate 
more stable, and that a lot of live-musicians use a powerbook should 
tell you something about it. Another example, a lot of people in 
Germany buy the Volkswagen Golf. For sure they don´t do it, because 
it´s a very fancy car, indeed it´s quite ugly, but the Golf is 
despite it´s outlook very popular because of it´s quality.
So Reggie´s friend should take a look at a Powerbook, because that´s 
a quality product that a lot of musicians already use live. Quod erat 
demonstrandum.

Cogito ergo sum? 

Confused, as always,
