> But who needs two Macs? There are many reasons. I'm a developer, I like having computers around, so I have multiple computers, including two Macs. Some people just have multiple computers and I'd guess that people who own a Mac Pro will probably have a second, more portable machine. > Why are you sp eager to defend them? Because I believe the i3-Linux-Thinkpad crowd needs to be constantly reminded that there are other people using computers with different opinions who may be actually happy and productive on their Apple hardware and who prefer dealing with minor hiccups like these over running Windows or Linux on generic PC hardware.

Yup. When I just want to get work done and not feel like I'm having to spend more time tending to an active science fair project than getting stuff done I turn to my Macs. I have plenty of friends who prefer Windows and even a few masochists who prefer Linux on their desktops. I never feel the need to criticize them for their choices. I'm not so curious about why someone would defend their choices, but why others who have no idea what someone else's wants or needs are feels that it's OK to pontificate as if their thoughts were relevant or even needed.
