Though I will think about your suggestions about further development and maybe actually "selling" the widgets, there is more into the whole issue of getting an Ubuntu-PC than I have written about here. It's not only about money, but several issues I have with OS X, certain things that I just do not like at all and which won't get changed by Apple because it obviously just isn't what they want to do. As it stands now (despite having a less-than-good experience with Ubuntu) I do not really feel like getting back on OS X. That may change over time, who knows, but at the moment I will stay with Ubuntu.

Keep up your coding and maybe try to sell some of your stuff for like $2 to start..I did that years ago and my first little app..an addon to QuarkXpress sold like crazy for $3.50...so don't give up and get a good intel Mac..I use an imac..latest one 24"..8Gb. ram and the drive I replaced with a 10,000 rpm 250gb. as os x pages alot and used alot of virtual memory. I don't like large drives as a few smaller ones are safer for data back-ups..hard to keep backing up a Terrabyte drive that will fail long before a smaller drive. I also use SMC fan control so I can contrll the fans to run the machine much cooler as the default apple setting cause temps of over 80c for the power supply and over 70c for the drive..way too hot...specially here in Miami!
