You know, coming to conclusions by starting from guesses and straw men isn't very useful.
For some reason, a lot of people like to say the Mac is inherently a more "productive" tool. Some people also say Emacs makes them more productive. Others swear by Dvorak or Colemak. But the thing is that the user is always part of the UI system and things like familiarity and muscle memory play a big factor in productivity. Not to mention the actual tasks. Not everything can be done easier in Macs than in PCs.
- MaysonL 17y agoJust reading your comment brought back muscle memories - between '72 and '79 I used the first CRT-based text editor I ever saw, and I swear I could sit down at a KSR-33 Teletype attached to one of those old 1 Mhz machines and be almost as productive as with any Mac editor - golly - even the opcodes are coming back - and I can hear the TTY in my mind's ear. Scary.
