Mac users?
I recently purchased a new iMac (27 inch quad core i7 with 16 gigs of ram), this prompted me to start wondering how many srpers are Mac users. The reason I switched was because I finally got tired of downloading patches for the patches I downloaded the day before.

Nice system! I have a 13" MacBook Pro for the same reason. I've come to the conclusion that PCs are better if you build them to do 1 thing only & do all your other daily stuff on a Mac. Much more secure too.

i also switched purely to mac.. i worked at a pc technician for years and ran linux at home.. finally got tired of constantly messing around with crummy hardware so i picked up a cheap mac on ebay..
i'm now a macbook user who probably couldn't last more than 5 minutes on a pc.

Count me in.
I use a 27" iMac quad core i5 in my office, and a macbook pro at home.
The macbook pro has a 256GB SSD drive and that really makes a difference. It is screaming fast!Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

I have a Macbook Air and finally switched my wife to a Mac too. She doesn't even go near the PC (paper weight).
I will be getting a new desktop soon (iMac perhaps) and maybe a macbook pro

I have a PC running iAtkos ( have an OSX License but PC Hardware) but I also run Linux and Windows since I need to support all 3 platforms for the company I work for. Really besides OSX the hardware on Mac and PC is not much different anymore since they are all using the same processor cores. Also Mac is just as prone to attack as Windows there was just a group that won an new Macbook by using a zero day issue in safari to gain control

make sure to keep your antivirus and spyware applications updated on Mac just as much as you do on Windows.
