That's awesome! I have been using a Linux-running Thinkpad at work for almost three years now and I absolutely love it. I didn't want my comment to sound like I'm saying Apple does it best. I just wanted to drive the point home that I don't think it's mainly the ecosystem that makes Apple devices fun to use. As a side note, I wasn't talking hardware that lasts 5 years. We all know most devices on the market now can pull that off, bar one battery-replacement. I was rather talking continued software updates, where iOS is certainly in the lead. Edit: just re-read your comment and you were talking Apple computers specifically. Oh well :)
