At first, the learning curve was a little frustrating but I am finally through all of that and LOVING the Mac! I am probably twice as productive just due to the improved performance. My old laptop was a Windows Vista machine and I can't tell you the number of problems and inconsistencies I experienced.

With my Mac, things just work. Period. In 3 months, I had to restart just once due to some issue with my browser freezing. Compare that to multiple reboots daily with my Vista machine.

Also, I do a lot of internet marketing and some web design. The tools available out-of-box with the Mac are beyond superior.

I know one of my concerns was that I would not be able to find certain applications that were compatible with the Mac. So far, this has not been an issue at all. I do a lot of technical work and I have always been able to find freeware, shareware or paid software to do everything I need.

I'm curious what the rest of you think. Are there lots of Mac supporters out there? Maybe you're a windows guy/girl and refuse to switch to Mac?
I made the switch from PC to Mac about 8 months ago and I am glad I did. I am/was a PC guru and now I am earning the title with regards to Mac. I am glad I made the switch.

I actually wrote 2 blog articles recently about things I love about Mac, and also some things I have ended up missing about windows and programs I loaded on Mac to give me back what I considered to be a loss of functionality.
