Going on 26 years with various Macs - Trouble free.

Have you guys ever noticed that pointing out to PC owners the enormous advantages of switching to a Mac is like trying to teach a pig to sing? It never seems to work and just annoys the pig.

What PC users hear from the MacNCrap users is snort, snort, snort, squeeeel! Get a real computer instead of the flashy, and expensive eye-candy.

Macs are no more secure than any other PC, just a small base of users who until recently didn’t raise enough interest in the spammer/hackers.

The greatness of Macs is myth and propaganda, but it’s all your choice so enjoy that Mac.

Really!! I never noticed ... but then the diehard PC guys always come back to games ... and then there is the-handcrafted-machine-put-together-for-half-the-price-and-twice-the-performance - funny how they never mention how long it took them to build it or how much they had to spend on “protection.” Or how much down time it takes them to reinstall the OS after the blue screen of death and fix their registry problems ...

Then there is: “A windows PC is a professional computer” bit, followed by: “Macs are toys” bit. But then these are the same guys that insist that being able to play games is what defines them, while we lowly “toy” computer users busily crank out projects in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Filemaker, Lightroom, etc. So who had the “professional” computer and who has the “toy” again?

Mac guys worry about color balance and font usage, while PC guys, hardly knowing one font from another, are deep into playing the latest game at the highest frame rate and highest resolution, using the latest cheat sheet to win ...

So who is truly annoyed here?
