Macs are just mature, there really isn’t anything sexy about them anymore. But going away? Forget it.
I dunno. I find the fact that they just work (for what I do, anyway) rather sexy.
Having a good old fashioned BSD Unix environment by opening a terminal window and hacking away in GNU Emacs without the need for some pseudo-Unix environment kludge - that’s pretty sexy for me at times too.
It is about as much fun as having a really fast SparcStation in the old days, when Solaris was a tad simpler and slimmer than it is now... but without the nonsense of X11 for a windowing system.
