Yep, there are many who use MAC, but not all, just as there is not
unanimity the other way around.
Though MAC still has some unique aspects that are particularly
useful to the graphics arts industry, the chasm that used to exist
between OSs is much smaller, and in other than graphics, PC
certainly has some applications advantages.
I sure hope we don't start the OS wars again on this forum.
They're interminable, and will not be adjudicated; certainly not on
this forum, and likely, not on others for which it is proper grist.
