Thanks a lot for the link Ian... And thanks for the advice Popo...
Actually I partly share the point that guy mentions in the thread. I'm not comfortable with the snob effect around the Apple universe. I mean they seem to have very nice devices doing a very good work. But at the same time I believe they have compatibility issues:
- that back-up utility Time Machine... It's a very good idea indeed. But does it work with a storage device other than the Time Capsule?
- Apple computers are equipped with Thunderbold interface (which is claimed to be faster than USB-3). That's ok but I've read many complaints from users trying to connect Thunderbold to DVI socket on the non-Apple panel. Original Apple adapter usually works fine, but it is twice the price of a 3rd party product.
All in all these two points may seem to be no valid criterias for choosing (or not choosing Apple), but what's all with that Apple "universe"... I stepped into the Appleworld with the iPad, maybe that's why I'm a bit biased <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Any ideas from Apple users?
