    A strange time to convert to Mac, as it begins to look like devs and then professionals otherwise will start abandoning the platform over coming years unless Apple pulls its snout out of the [very[ lucrative consumer market.

    • yup x2. I'm full on Linux for dev work. Wish I would have made the jump years ago.section_014
    • I was toying with linux. I'm just too dependant on adobe.err
    • 50% of my time is in terminal and sublime the rest is in adobe productserr
    • if you want to work in an os closer to linux and with a terminal, OS X is actually a good choice thoughmonospaced
    • and yes, even I'm at a point where I can't find an Apple computer that meets my needs as a creative :(monospaced
    • My next computer will be a PC. I'm not happy about it but if you use 3D and work with video all day, you're time on Mac is coming to an end.CyBrainX
    • If you have any doubt, listen to these guys for a while.

    • Interesting, cy, although i think they're slightly over-extrapolating their data points - eg. I don't think we're in the hump of the 'bell curve' of transition.detritus
    • ... Yet!

      Wasn't 3D always quite PC-centric anyway?

    • I feel like Hackintosh is the way to go, at least in theory, for me. I want to at least try to have OS X, but it allows a good transition to Windows eventuallymonospaced
