Oh the smugness and arrogance of some MAC users can be unbearable!
In my old workplace, my little graphics dept. was promoted to a design dept. and we hired a Graphics artist. When it came buying computers of course we had to buy MACs because as you all know "you can´t do graphics on anything but MAC". When the tech guy, who setup the macs, heard I had been working on PC for years he almost fainted and told me that "I'd be born again to MAC". I decided to keep an open mind and after using MAC for a year I concluded that it was, after all, just a computer. I found the MAC OS much worse, probably because I was so used to Windows and I didn't find the MAC system more stable then that of a Workstation PC.
One thing I think MAC users should worry about is the progression of Adobe Suite. If you look at the feature list of CS4 you'll find some "Windows only" features but no "MAC only" features. If this progression continues, I'd think in the future we can safely say that "you can't do graphics on anything but a PC" ;)
