On the other hand, I like Macs but they're hardly trouble-free, and so far I haven't been willing to fork over the extra money for one. Most everyone I've ever worked with uses Windows, which is why I do. And in my experience, the Windows-to-Mac-and-back experience is still not entirely seamless.

I've used Linux Ubuntu too. It's great if PCs are your hobby and you have plenty of free time to dive into the user forums and figure out what language these people are speaking (it's definitely not English). Getting actual work done? Not so much. Your mileage may vary.

Have I managed to tick off everyone yet? If not, let's talk about the election. That'll do it for sure.
