Mac/Windows Compatability Question  
If someone who has a Windows system wanted to switch to a Mac,

1. Which Mac runs Windows/Windows-native applications? Specifically, Photoshop CS2.
2. Does the Mac require purchase of all new peripherals (monitor, printer, external hard drives)? (I suspect this answer is, "depends on the peripheral and who made it," but I'm hoping for a "duh, of course it wouldn't!")
3. Would purchase of the Windows-capable Mac mean the peripherals still worked?

The important thing here is to avoid purchasing a Vista-infested box.

ETA: I'm assuming there are good web references with which to educate myself. If you know of any good ones, I'd appreciate your letting me know. :)

Do you still have the Titanium notebook? If so and you're willing to hold it until July 1, then would you please send me an e-mail with the specs and how much you're hoping to sell it for?

Turns out I'm getting a bonus next month (I don't know if it's on the 15th or 30th but I'd bet the latter or exactly how much it'll be after taxes/401K deductions) and so I'm looking into my laptop options. Thanks!

I do still have it, I am willing to wait until July 1st, but I'm not sure if I have your current e-mail address. If you have mine, would you ping me there?
