I just bought one of the 17" iMacs, how does the Apple LCD screens 
compare qualitywise to the Samsung, and other 'PC' LCD screens? On my 
machine there appears to be one pixel that's always blue, is that 
something fixable, or should I return my machine for a replacement?

OSX 10.2.2 seems pretty nice. This is only the 3rd Mac I've ever used, 
the first being a IILC (running OS7.1) and the other a 5500/225 that had 
a 500mhz Sonnet accelerator in it running OS9.1 that I just gave to my 
step son last month. As a person who's GUI experience started with the 
Amiga, and then Unix (Openwindows), then finally Windows, I find the OSX 
interface much nicer than the 'classic' macos interface.

Is there a version of SoftWindows for OSX? I have one single program 
that I use on the PC (Auctiontamer) that if I could run it on on the 
iMac I would be able to get rid of my PC all together!

Now if I could only find where to setup my .signature in Netscape 7.0 
(OSX version) I'll have my sig back!
