Except recording artists and filmmakers of course. Who would absoloutely laugh you out of the building at the thought of Windows being compotent at anything other than doing a fucking spreadsheet.

Windows is dying. The market is going the way of the mac. It's started at the top and it's working it's way down. Nobody producing any piece of media for mainstream consumption wants to touch a windows.

Virtually all commercial movies are edited and rendered on Final Cut Pro on Mac platforms. Virtually all commercial studio albums are recorded on Pro Tools and Logic on Mac platforms. Macs are the dominant force in both industrys. This is a fact. I have hands on experience in one of those fields.

But keep pretending you know what you are talking about. Mac is THE media platform. Nobody is making a blockbuster or crafting an album on Windows.

Macs are also incredibly intuitive. The trackpad I have on my MacBook has support for multitouch gestures which means I can pinch to zoom like on the iPhone and if I want to go backwards and forwards between pages in Safari I just swipe 3 fingers back across the trackpad. Its so simple. I couldn't live without it.

Also Macs are stupidly fast in comparison to Windows mine takes about 25 seconds to be FULLY ready to use. I don't have to feck around waiting for any antivirus or crappy pre-loaded software to load up. Shutting down is even faster, takes only 3 seconds. Beat that Windows.

I could say a lot more but I'll spare you all for now.
