How's this for a twist?

[First PC was a CP/M Morrow Micro Decision, still have it]

I've developed solutions on all sorts of platforms including both PC & Mac and for personal & professional use since 2003, I'm Tablet PC w/o keyboard.

Am I iPad bound? Absolutely!

works mandates PCs, but have the wife on a mac mini, and an iPhone for myself. If work didn't provide a Windows laptop, I'd be using a mac at home too.

Our company runs on Mac and we have both at home... might not have the PC for too much longer though -- as we were using the Pre released beta of Windows7 and that expires in two days.

I love trying different computer operating systems though -- spent many years promoting/developing Linux and settling down on Mac right now, still getting to the lack of right-click. ;-)

What lack of right click? I know it's not exactly like the PC, but mine right clicks just fine.

I have always had a PC, you cannot beat the gaming options on it!

BTW, Apple worst move was when they introduced the "puck" mouse.

My first computer was a TI-99/4A. I received it from my older brother. I had the PEBox too. I still have it. I also have a Timex-Sinclair 1000, a Tandy TRS100 and a Commodore Portable Computer III.

I am PC guy now. I have a notebook pc that runs Windows Vista, a netbtook that runs Windows XP, a netbook that has FreeDOS on it, a notebook computer that had eComStation on it (it died recently due to age). I have also tried Linux on some. I tried ReactOS on an older notebook computer. That is the upside to a pc; one is not restricted to just one operating system.
