Hate to be smug

but instant paperless printing to PDF from any application has been a standard part of the Macintosh OS for years.

Yeah

And Mac's cost a lot more than PC's
Partially because of the cost of bundled software.

Not hardly.

Grey, on this one you're about five years out of date. Unless you're talking about a geeky kit-built PC. Against a reputable manufacturer like Dell, comparable hardware specs run you about even, the incomparable Mac software is a bonus. Mac peripherals will often will cost a tad more, but then you'll not need new ones as often as with Windows. And the latest OS (Leopard) runs happily on a 4-year-old entry-level iMac. I hear Vista is not nearly so accommodating.

Here's a link to a pretty balanced assessment:
