For grownups, the PC is, like a hammer, just a tool and not something worthy of a following. If the tool works for you great, if not then get something different. Macs just won't run many of the applications I need so I won't be either using it or loving it. The iMac's still the same old niche PC, packaged in an old way, with a very-many-years-late operating system. As for the monitor-on-an-arm, Wang had one that was more versatile over several decades ago (and look where it got them).

For grownups, the PC is, like a hammer, just a tool and not something worthy of a following.

And yet, you, as a "grown-up" and utilitarian tool user, felt passionately enough about a tool that you DON'T EVEN USE, to make negative comments about it.

If you don't like our tools, then why are they constantly in your mouth and on your mind??

Seems to me that if you felt as dispassionately as you SAY you do about our tools, then you wouldn't even bother posting on this utilitarian tool rating thread.
