Just wondering how many users on this forum are Mac owners and what opinions they have on the Mac O/S. I have been a user for a year now and will never be going back to a windows based P.C. I have got to say I love my Mac!

Yes me too, bought a macbook pro for college and it is far far superior to windows os's very quick able to process very large files quickly the graphics are awesome. I Also run parallels as well so i can run windows xp for visual basic. I have a very highly specced windows pc but my mac keeps impressing me.

Looks cool as well.

I have a MacBook Air on order. I think I might have sex with it when it comes:

I crossed over in early 2007 and as the salesman said at the time 'once you go Mac, you never go back' he was a tool but dead right.

ANY OS is better than Microcost - especially Vista!!!

If you like Macs you would have loved the Amiga OS which ran on the same CPU as a Mac. Microsoft deliberately killed it.

The Macbook Air with the solid state memory looks like it would last for a lot longer than the hard drive version, especially if you're hard on stuff!

I setup a laptop to run purely on RAm ages ago with a flash drive for storage it works a treat!!!

Powermac since 1995, converted to a G4, with OS X Leopard 10.2.8 still running great and a Titanium Powerbook G4 with OS X Panther 10.3.
Use both for many hours, every day of the year. Most Photoshop and Internet. Never had a crash or other problems.
For more than 12 years I tell everybody how great Macs are, but no one is listening. I'm pleased to meet Mac fans on Ribnet.

over the years have worked through 4 versions of mac laptops, excellent, just the thing for working on the move :-)

Been a fan of Macs for years, all my father in law's fault, been using them at home and for work for about 4 years now.

I still have to have a PC to be able to support Garmin software, but one day they will drag themselves into the C21st.
