I have a trashcan pro that sits and collects dust (I paid more than $3k for it). Then I needed to upgrade the video card and was left SOL. My Hackintosh Pro is simply my "backup". I don't feel the need to further justify my decision, but I've supported Apple for a very long time. I'm simply one of the many buyers who they've seem to leave behind.

"I'm simply one of the many buyers who they've seem to leave behind." Exactly. It's fairly mindboggling that a company with Apple's resources isn't doing a better job at producing a sufficient lineup of machines. Minis with CPUs up to quad core i7s would be great. Apple also ought to introduce a mini-tower with (gasp) upgradable components. That is in fact the "greenest" type of computer, as it won't be recycled for much longer. Apple could then, once again, legitimately claim to offer some of the most powerful consumer systems - something it's a long way from at the moment. Finally, Apple should offer a true "pro" laptop with a Xeon processor, lots of ECC RAM, and a choice of "pro" graphics chips. HP, Dell, and Lenovo all do. Apple is the last company left with a viable commercial Unix. It needs to offer powerful machines!
