I will only buy 3 brands of hard drives right now... Seagate, WD, and Maxtor...

But I think 7,200 RPM IDE drives are worth buying... why wouldn't they be? :confused:

Well, he might have a point there. Macs are reliable, if anything...

hehe i won't pick a fight :)
i'm a very happy pc and mac user who realizes that both systems have their merrits.

what i mean by my comment is that if a company that is the size of apple whose main stream of revenue is from system sales relies solely on one type of HD for the majority of their systems they probably have a reason for it.
