I love how he says "I find it utterly annoying when any fanboy makes broad claims such as 'Developers are Switching to Mac'"

then goes on to say..

"Windows sucks. Period."

I've played with Macs, and have given Linux an honest shot, using it as my only OS for about 2 months. I am simply more productive developing PHP/MySQL on windows.



I used windows for years to do the same thing. Now, when I'm at home, I'll hook up my mac to the monitor and hide half of my windows desktop because I'm much more productive here.

We should compare notes. I bet we're both doing something wrong/stupid in our rejected OS's.


If you cared enough to read the sentence a little bit further, you would realize that it's "mostly because they are incorrect".

The other thing, that "Windows sucks, period"... Well... Millions of lemmings can't be wrong, can they?
