My feelings in a nutshell

An article written by Steven Leigh (8 Reasons Windows Users Don’t Switch) generally sums up a lot of my feelings.  For me he hits the nail on the head with his points 5, 6 and 8; which are titles Lies, Windows Bashing and Mac Users.  This is really sad because I really would love to buy the iMac, I love the hardware and so does my wife.  But the more forums I read the more I am turned off of the idea.

Here is one of my fears.  When i first buy the iMac I will initially have to run both windows and OS X because I still need some Windows applications.  Now because OS X will be new to me I will probably want to ask in forums for assistance, some of these questions will most like involve Windows/OS X interoperability and this is where the problem lies.  On a lot of forums as soon as you mention the word windows the poster gets a barrage of sarcastic comments.  This is just not useful.
