I bought my first Mac about two weeks ago (MacBook Pro) and I am loving it. My next desktop might just be a Mac too

Mac user since early 80's when they had Mac Classics in college. Bought my first Mac in the early 90's - a PowerMac 6100 with 8MB of RAM. I upgraded to a robust 32MB of RAM. Next computer was a PowerComputing Mac clone and then moved to a dual process G4. My latest rig is a PowerMac G5 DP and a PowerBook G4. Haven't made the jump to the Macintel computers yet, but Leopard might be a reason.

I am a Mac user/technician. I use Windows and Mac at the college I work for. I am the only mac technician here and you can imagine the razing i get from the PeeCee techs here. I am seeing more Mac laptops on campus here every year and they seem to be out numbering the Windows machines. I can't stand Windows and do everything I can to stay away from it!
I'm stuck with the windows platform till my next machine(Prob a laptop), It will a Mac, I'm Tired of windows.

I'm a Mac user all the way... I just converted my wife to a Mac, bought her a iMac G5 with the intel processor so she can still use some of her windows programs. I have to convert her slowly. 
She can't wait for the iPhone to come out. She should be up and running her iMac full speed by then...

Windows Vista on desktop and laptop at home, and Windows XP Pro at work. Like macs, but can't see $2800 for the macbookpro.
I don't have any problems with Windows. I've used macs before and really didn't see much difference.
According to the poll, it looks like the Windows users aren't replying to this thread.

Thanks
Thanks! I finally found someone to go to for GREAT tech advice.I'll give you one reason......Windows!
My first computer was a PowerMac 7200, 75 Mhz processor.... and I THINK it might have had 16 MB of RAM when I got it and I too upgraded to 32MB at some point... and that was a crazy lot to have back then...this was the first mac I ever owned, but of course we had the old Apple IIe in my elementary school well before I ever owned a computer.... you know... the "Oregon Trail" machine....
Currently I have an aging 12" Powerbook G4. Tt still works fantastic and is nowhere near being obsolete... try getting a windows machine that isn't outdated the minute you get it out of the store...
I am... a Macster! Started out in about'83 with a Mac Plus, which toated 1mb of ram, upgradable to 4! Now who would ever need more ram than that? Now I am living life on a G5.
At work, now that's another story. PC platform. Not bad, now that Windows has evolved towards the Mac! I can remember when windows '98 came out... "Windows 98 = to Mac 86."
I just prefer Mac.

I am an avid mac user. I still have my three year old powerbook g4 (15in) which i upgraded to have everything it could have at the time i bought it. still works great (never had a pc for more than a year or so before it dying on me). Next computer will be a fully upgraded macbook.
use pc's at work and definitely prefer mac - windows simply isn't as functional as osx

Apple II to the G5
I'm an early adopter of anything Mac...I got the very first generation iPod the day it was available and I still have the Apple II that my dad bought when it first came out...and now I have my own editing suite at home that consists of a Mac G5 and two 23-inch HD Cinema screens...I'll always use Apple products b/c they are unmatched to anything else out there....
