Mac or PC users

Since we "opened our mind" by driving a smart,

How many of us "Think different" with a Mac.

Just curious to see if a lot of smartie owners are more likely to have Macs or Pc's

Please no debate on the merit of the two platforms

Personally I have a Mac

PC only since 1995. Primarily Commodore before 1995. Amiga was way ahead of even Apple, in its time. No debate? That's no fun.

I've had PC's of one type or another since 1985 (Tandy Coco before that, along with a IT99/4A, and even a Timex Sinclair). Have had 2 Macs - a 17" iMac when OSX first came out, and more recently upgraded to a 24". Also have a PC laptop.

Yep, cut my teeth on a Commodore 64, then a 128, then an Amiga 500, and lastly a boosted 68030-powered Amiga 3000 through the mid-90s. I've been PC ever since.

And, I'd like to second the motion that the Amiga (like the smart in many ways) was ahead of it's time.

If we have to go back this far.
Apple II
IBM AT 286
COMPAQ "luggable" the one that looked like a sewing machine case with the red plasma screen.
plenty other PC's until I went mac in 2003.
Just got a brand new Imac 27

The Rigger, I would love to try the Lisa, I wanted one so bad.
