If this isn't the case, then why should anyone consider getting a Mac?

Of course you can run Windows on the mac. There are several methods from Apple's own Bootcamp to VMwares Fusion. However they all require you to actually purchase a copy of Windows (which btw costs more than a copy of OSX!) and then subjects you to all the headaches and security risks that using Windows involves.
Do I want to go to all this trouble and expense just to run Mobipocket? Mmmm no. I'd like to be able to download one file version of a book and be able to read that file on my Mac and on my reader. Is that too much to ask? Tell me the Cybook has e-Reader support and I'll be much more interested. There's a company that knows how to make a reader that runs on multiple OS's.
