For the record, I didn't think you were trolling for sympathy; I'm just never know what to say in these situations, and so usually say the first thing that comes to mind, which is an awkward declaration of support and sympathy (but rarely empathy).
The program thing is very annoying - it was one of the reasons I so delighted in having a PC a few years ago - but lately I've found that it's not such a problem, as more and more programmers are either making the updated versions Mac/PC compatible or even creating a Mac version of the program. I mean, unpacking software, music, video, imaging, internet, film, word processing; I've found Mac versions of all of those, and can't really think of any other programs one would really need. (Then again, brainstorming is not my forte.)
