Chris,
Don't get me wrong -- I'd love one. I'm constantly eyeing them.
Thing is, as you've mentioned, is it a necessity? Nah. Are my images that horrible that I need to use a Mac to improve on them?
I know how awesome the user experience is. But, at the end of the day, Windows7 and IRIS and Photoshop are doing what I want them to do. And, quickly!
The only other things I run are Starry Night Pro Plus, an MP3 player and a browser for YouTube, IceInSpace and photography/art web sites.
Again, I can't justify the cost at the moment. Please don't take my comment as bagging or disparaging the Mac -- I guess Daniel just invited me to play devil's advocate and I obliged. For $1,200 I have a machine with oodles of RAM, a good quality video card, and a couple of OSs that don't skip a beat (Solaris 10 and Windows7).
The money spent on the CCD was a now-or-never type situation.
