Apple issues



You guys are slowly convincing me to buy a mac!
I did work with G4´s a while back but they weren´t
crash free, but with windows ME i tell you i am
loosing hair and the few left turning gray!
I ve heard XP is better but my soundcard is having
major issues with its drivers for it...
So now that we are on the subject how compatible are 
Macs with all of the the new flat monitors? do they
have to be from apple as well? I also read a major
complaint in the papers for new mac users having to
buy i think itools extra for 100dlls. now that
wouldn´t be very generous from apple would it?
cheers
