Why the Mac-hate?

I'm typing this on an iMac and it runs SH5 fairly well despite having only a 250MB graphics card and 1GB of RAM, and it does it under Vista.

True, my Mac is not easy to upgrade, and it's completely impossible to take apart, but it f'n works! Plus, it looks really cool. How many PC's have the tower built into the one-inch thick monitor? How many PC's allow you to restore everything when Vista inevitably suffers an irreversible motherboard fault? I've had to replace two PCs because of motherboard faults, but no matter how much Windows screws everything up, I can always recover using Time Machine.

I have only a basic understanding of software, and an even more rudimentary understanding of hardware, but I cannot disagree with the fact that Macs work. This machine does everything that my PCs failed to do, and it does it twice; once in Leopard, and again in Vista.

If you don't like Macs, that's fine. I could not care less. Take your technical complaints to Microsoft, and I'm sure they'll develop a system so superior that nobody will ever buy a Mac again. That's what monopolies do, right? Or perhaps they'll just try to quash Mac with marketing. It's anybody's guess, isn't it?
