(you aren't really looking for enlightenment, you are looking to agitate some mac users.)

I really have no ill will toward Mac or Linux users.I do have a problem with some of their obnoxious elitist attitudes.And from what I've learned on this thread today I've come to the conclusion that Macs are just not for me.Not that they're crap or far superior to PCs just not useful or necessary to me for what I use a computer for.A BMW may be a better motorcycle than a Suzuki Bandit but if all you want to do is wheelies and smokey burn outs I'll take the Suzuki every time.

I think I came on a little harsher than I meant too. I didn't really mean you wanted to irritate mac users so much as chide them a little, but in a friendly way. At least that is what is seemed like to me? That is, you weren't planning on having your mind changed by their responses. I agree with you on the above, I like the competition in the market and don't mind any of the systems, and I too get irritated with computer elitists. I use all three (but only use Windows and Linux at home, except for a couple old macs sitting around that I play with every 6 months or so). In fact I use many other more archaic operating systems, but that is a tale for another thread. ;-)
