Pavel,

I use both a Mac (which is short for Macintosh, so no need for all caps) and a
PC.  I have used and programmed the PC daily since 1983; I programmed for
Windows 1.0 beta starting in early '86; I have used and programmed the Mac daily
since 1988.  I have tens of thousands of hours invested in each.  Let's just say
that I strongly disagree with your statement that the Macintosh is not as good,
and leave it at that.  There is plenty of discussion about this elsewhere on the
'net.

As for a 64-bit Mac, I don't know.

As for installing a PC motherboard inside a Mac case, I don't know.  (Unless you
meant "can you run PC software on Mac hardware?", in which case the answer is
only through emulation.  But I think you meant "can you use a Mac case to hold a
PC motherboard?")
