Adam, True most Pro level graphics are still being done on Macs. I just wanted to point out that even stalwarts like Adobe now produce applications for Windows only. However now that you mention it, Apple used to have a strangle hold on graphics. It's my guess that they probably have about 60% - 70% now. Apple also used to own the interactive market, and it would be my guess that it now owns 50% or less. Just a guess. The point being, a lot of us Mac users are getting a bit afraid that with the success of the iMac, Apple may slowly abandon us. The Pro machines have been languishing for a long time, new consumer stuff is in the pipe and I, personally am not enamored with Yosemite enough to abandon my 8500. Especially when I look at Video editing software and hardware. Maybe afraid is to much, uneasy perhaps? I remember awhile back I used to attend Lingo User Group meetings. It shocked me when the president of the group started using Windows machines to author her interactive projects. Wouldn't shock me now. Director users definately need to use Windows machines now.
