You're perfectly welcome to keep your Mac but you should not call
Windows a Mac ripoff. Both are a ripoff of the Xerox Alto created by
Xerox PARC. But it's good that Jobs and Gates came along and took what
they did. Xerox hadn't a clue about the value of what they had. The
Alto would still be languishing in the lab.
