    Windows run faster again if you skip the overpriced mac hardware and don't bother with any mac OS while you are at it.

    If you like things in white cases and make 'barrrrhhh' noises sometimes then this looks great, as you can finally run a proper OS in your overpriced hardware which makes it nearly right.
