    The Mac SE was still the best computer I ever had. All-in-one design and it bounced off the floor during an earthquake and still came up with the happy Mac icon. Sigh.

    "Macintoshes have evolved and are now used in every single aspect of comics today."Er, not quite. At least, not if the writer uses a PC……

      We're not counting weirdos like you, DeCandido. But I can understand it– if you wrote on a Mac, you'd have manuscripts finished 50% faster and editors would start harassing you for them. If you work on a PC, editors make allowances.

        "if you wrote on a Mac, you'd have manuscripts finished 50% faster"Uhm — HUH? What are you talking about????

          It is the mystical power of the Macintosh. Do not question the power of the Macintosh. When you embrace the true way of the Macintosh, you will understand. Come. Join us. You will understand.

    I still have fond memories of playing Kings Quest on the Apple 2GS. My god Ive gotten old. I've drunk the koolaid myself. It's not so bad. You trade in a system that crashes all the time and has bugs for a smug superficial attitude :)
