Yes, confirming this. It happened to me yesterday.

on the serious side: i got so much more time out of going to the gym. I'm practically never sick anymore, i'm much clearer and awake, i sleep much less. The time i spend in the gym working out gets back x3 in the end.

No more trouble with ackin' back or problems with elbows or shoulders due to too much programming and studio time. I do weightlifting 3 times a week, about 1-1½ hour at a time. And then the days in between i might go for a run or take a little trip on the bike.

People constantly buy new Macs because they are the dopest shit on the planet shut your pie hole you better recognize. They need a new Mac like they need to get laid more often.

People buy new PCs because they have to and they are tired of clean installing all their software every 3 months. Sadly they buy their new PC just when they finally got their old one configured properly.

mac users are the last people on earth that should be giving computer advice.

(just kiddin here guys - no malice) +1 AP - the very fact they've bought a Mac in the first place could be because the simple challenge of operating a computer with too many technical options simply overwhelmed their image obsessed ego's. Oldie but goodie:

LOL. I use 3 PC towers every day. Love em all. Happily running XP Pro on all 3. I do 3D, video, and Flash work so I put these suckers through the wringer and they always perform great.

However.

I hadn't owned a Mac for 12 years or so. The constant fucking crashes drove me to the PC world and I've not looked back.

I got an iPhone on the 2nd day they were released. Loved it. I needed a new laptop and after being so impressed with the iPhone, thought I'd check out what Apple were doing with the MacBook. Picked one up.

I can honestly say, right here and now, that I'd happily switch to all Macs if they would offer Intel dual quad cores and work with all the software I use. The Mac OS, and the entire experience, is nothing short of elegant. It's about a million times smarter and more intuitive. And the fact that I don't have to fuck with 598 pieces of antivirus/antispyware/antiadware software doesn't hurt either.

macs are great kit. ive always recommended them to people who arent interested in learning about computers, who just want a tool to get things done.
if youre happy to pay the mac tax then youll get a great usable system.

thats why its hilarious when mac zealots talk about their bad experiences with pc's which are almost 100% PEBKAC.
