Okay, phrase it that way and we're on the same page. It just sounded from your previous post like you thought a lot of design software was somehow native to Macs, which it isn't.

You are not that type.... You are the type that buys it for the ability to use its great programs like Final cut or some other program which macs are known for.

Or maybe I am just totally full of **** and I my stereotypical opinions are nothing more then my own bias showing through.
I agree that there is that stereotype, I don't know how true it is overall though. Most people I know who own Macs have them because they're involved in a similar line of work to mine. Of course that may be just a reflection of the circles I travel in.
