This is exactly my point. I used to be a mac fan for many years. Now all it is good for is hanging on Facebook, news websites and occasionally doing stuff in Google Docs. Basically a stylish Chromebook equivalent. This is the pattern I've been seeing for the last couple of years.
Serious design people seem to be moving to Windows, programmers - to the same direction, sometimes to Linux.
- c256 8y agoI see “serious design people” using non-laptop macs, and using iPads and/or iPhones instead of laptops for portable devices. There are a few who use Windows, but they are almost uniformly unhappy about it. The people I see who are most happy with Windows are (still) mostly there for gaming.
