Good old days when apple was cool. I was a mac dev since I turned 15 (1985) until about 2007, when it started to be all trendy. Before that time, there were few people, so it was 'easy' if you were good to be the tree standing out from the copse.

In 2007, it became windows, where no matter how good you are, it's impossible to differentiate yourself from the forest of people whose way to get work is to undercut you. And they have a goatee too!

These days I still use a mac, but it's a hackintosh, and mostly only for photography.


I was the opposite, started with Windows, then moved to Mac about 5 years ago.
