There are other reasons I am still on Mac. However, the main reason is the amount of programming applications for the windows platform.

I find the windows os much more customizable. So, if you know the OS properly you can tweak it and it will take less steps to complete a particular task.

I respect your opinion. You’re right about the Mac being user friendly for the newbie. But vista has been quite user friendly too

Windows 7 may change the completely too

Elegance may be in the eye of the beholder. However, ease of use is a measurable property and Mac OSes have consistently beat Win OSes in extensive, comprehensive and exhaustive usability tests conducted by a team of researchers (some university in France; google it up), year after year. Same tasks consistently take fewer mouse clicks, less mouse movement and, with similar/same hardware specifications, less time to process on Mac OS than on Windows.

There will be more of these switchers in the coming months/years. It only makes sense.

I would say that elegance and ease of use is in the eye of beholder. I find windows more user friendly as I’ve using them since I was a small child.

I’ve been a PC guy, will live life as a PC guy :)
