Why I love Apple
Ok, I don't really, but to offset my last post I thought I'd share what I do in fact like about Apple and the Mac (because I do admire them for a few things that the PC industry has been unable to accomplish thus far):
� They understand that people like attractive computer hardware, and they spend serious effort creating hardware that looks good, feels good, and tastes good (I'm sure at least one iMac owner has "licked the lamp" so to speak) 
� They had the guts to switch over to a new core for the OS (UNIX) and drag the rest of their user base with them (whether they liked it or not).
� They understand the importance of digital media and try to create hardware and software to take advantage of that.
There are quite a few things that I don't like about Apple, but I'll keep that in the other thread. I sincerely believe that the PC industry has a few lessons to learn from Apple, but no one wants to go to school. In a slump like this, perhaps they should? What do YOU admire about Apple? Come on, there has to be at least one thing...
