I have used macs for many years, but I still don't understand the fandom it has achieved in recent years. My computer history starts with programming in elementary school on Tandy's and Commodore's. I didn't touch a mac until junior high and didn't like it. By high school, I was moving the journalism department off of typewriters and on to macs. During college, I had a job designing on a PC while using a mac at school. Interned at the local newspaper and saw them threw the transition from ancient PCs to modern macs (OS 8). After that, I would started refusing jobs that did not use macs. Windows just required too much time fiddling with the system and the programs I needed (mainly photoshop and pagemaker) just did not run as well as they did on a mac. Fast forward to now and I still use a mac, but I don't see how it is for everyone. I agree that it seems overpriced for just messing around the net. It bugs the f out of me the rare times I have had to go to the apple store to grab something and have to deal with the incompetent snobs there trying to look cool in their "genius" t-shirt. I'm lucky enough to have friends on the inside to call if I have problems because the days of just talking to the programmer seem long gone too. Maybe this rant is just another one of those signs that I'm turning into an old coot, but I'll cut it short by saying the mac is great for some people, but it is not the end-all-be-all machine that many claim. If it is not right for you, than be happy that you could save a few hundred dollars and enjoy your PC. After all, I think windows 8 is the first thing Microsoft has done right in decades.

"Much better virus protection" isn't actually true. Because Mac OS only runs on about 3% of all computers worldwide, it's targeted a lot less, but it's not inherently safer than any other OS.

So what you have now is a well-built computer with a polished OS that cost more than a machine with the exact same hardware and a different OS. As long as you don't start being a douche about it, it's not too bad.

I fear it may be too late. I've noticed that my farts smell really awesome lately...

Everybody likes their own flavor.
