If you're trying to purchase a Mac so that you can run MS Office or
other Windows only products without dual booting this is no longer
necessary if you've got a Windows installation CD and a Linux system. I
run Windows in Linux using Virtualbox (http://www.virtualbox.org) which
is pretty much like a free version of VMWare Workstation. Do all of your
research/graphics/modeling work on Linux and put it together using
Adobe/MS publishing software in Windows running in VirtualBox. You can
even share folders between the host Linux system and the guest Windows
system without manually setting up a Samba server in Linux.

VirtualBox doesn't support Direct3D so most Windows games won't work. I
haven't tried OpenGL apps, but what's the point when you can just run
these in Linux.
