LOL! You're on a Mac. You won't switch to Windows, but wonder why Windows people who can now ignore switching, as it were, because they can now use their everything Windows on a Mac, while gaining all the free pre-installed kicker Mac apps, why are they thinking about buying a Mac? Funny. Too funny. Hilarious.

The analysts and the press are all in a frenzy over the fact you can run Windows on a Mac. Why in the world does this make a Windows machine less attractive all of a sudden? I just don't get it. Well you just don't understand techies, developers, designers etc. Think of it this way. If you are a web designer or developer and you are at the park using your MacBook Pro to design a website. You need to test it on Windows. So you just test it. Instead of driving home. You don't have to buy another computer. Huge advantage. That's why I had a Windows computer. Piece of junk otherwise. I just needed it to test designs. Then if you are primarily a UNIX head but you are forced to work for dumb business people who've bought into the Windows every thing mantra you can do both on a book. Many many advantages I can't think of off the top of my head.
