No but I find the idea more tempting as time goes on because I need to use some applications for work that I can't get on Mac, but I prefer using the Mac OS (this is kind of an odd statement for me, because I don't know if I would prefer Mac OS on my desktop, but the way everything is laid out it really lends well to working on a smaller screen, whereas I have a 24" on my desk).

A coworker has the 15" mac book pro connected to his 22" dell LCD monitor, this is his desktop pc. I have considered getting a larger monitor for this purpose. He uses the firewire for his backup drive.
