I read that Apple is splitting its stock based on the performance of its music player, and that Apple stock has quadrupled in price. One analyst said that the Mac Mini would increase Apple's sales by 50% or more in 2005. Just wondering what y'all are using.

I use a Mac, not because I'm an Apple Jihadist, but because an Apple IIC was the first comuter I ever owned back in the the late seventies, and I never saw reason to change.

I'm a Mac-ky. My wife is a PC-er. :argue:

She won the last time, I won this time. :banana:

We currently use an E-Mac for online and other things. I have a G4-500 networked to it for working on art files.

William The Mac-daddy!! :rolleyes:

Windoze. I'd rather run Linux but I 'm too lazy at home and work is well, you know how those people can be.

Besides, when Bill Gates patents 0s and 1s as intellectual property you guys'll be sorry.

Mac - one at work, three at home, one that I've had since 1997. The new eMac G5 rocks!

Another Mac'er, since my SE/30 circa late '80's.

No question about it; Mac people are MUCH more interesting!

Sony VAIO running windows XP Pro. Never had the problems people say they do, knock on wood. Grew up with DOS. Never saw a reason to change. It's all what you're familiar with. Hard for me to use MAC stuff. Oddly it seems counterintuitive at this point.

interesting results. apple has something like 4-6% of u.s. computer market, but it looks like the overwhelming % of forumites. guess it is further proof...cyclists aren't like most normal folks. :beer:

That's why I asked the question, because I was antiipating the result. Just shows you that the people who are willing to pay a little extra for good design in bikes are also willing to pay extra for good design in computers.

Okay...I said it...start throwing the rotten fruit.

or maybe mac users just find the need to say they are different and us Windows users don't. Minorities are always more vocal than the majority.

I just wanted to share the artwork my six year old son created on the Mac using Photoshop. Pretty good for his second time using the program. :cool:

Macs Rule!
