Because my work flow in Windows is fast and I know what works. Having to learn MAC software for video is just not worth it for me at this point. Maybe later when I have nothing to do and have time to kill, I'll give it another chance, but right now, I have work to do and have to be efficient. MAC was slowing me down due to the learning curve on every piece of software I installed.

With that said, my MAC runs Windows better than any of my PC's ever did. I'll also note that MACS "Time Machine" is totally bad ass, as is "Spaces" and the new track pad. The amount of fingers I move on it will determine what it does. That's pretty cool. But again, I'm doing my work on the PC side.

You summed it up perfect.
Aside from that there is a mac documentary about macs. "welcome to macintosh. It goes into the good and the bad. Mainly how mac is not the little guy, and anti-establishment how people like to believe, or want to believe. They are just as greedy, if not more than microsoft. Mac, with it's proprietary BS almost forces you to get the latest products in order for everything to work, and the mac sheep, yes thats what they are, sheep, buy into it, and fork over 2-3 k each year for the latest gadget. Mac did well by indoctrinating their users into thinking they have a superior product. Macs crash too, but you will never hear a mac user admit that.
