If they supply the Mac, I'll be happy to switch.  ;D

Having to do a preview of each post is getting to be a real pain the duper..... >:(

With out the preview function I'm greeted with a timeout error.

I wonder if they'll decide tell Windows users to switch to Mac or Linux in order to use their services (Blogger, Chrome, Youtube, etc.) like they did to their employees.

I think that would be a dumb move on their part.  Most (actually all of it I guess) of their revenue is based off of advertising, and if 80% of their users are on windows, they would lose a lot of money.

No, I'm pretty sure they'll let windows users continue using their services...

They're just trying to prove to other companies that they don't have to use Windows. The Chrome OS will never catch on among the general population.

Good and valid observation.
