Curious, would you become so irritated as to say those words if you were having this conversation in person? I would say the Stomachmonkey of just a few years ago probably wouldn’t and he certainly wouldn’t say them in an internet thread. I only “know” you through your postings, which I used to look forward to but lately (say post ‘16 or ‘20) an edge has accompanied many of your posts. Maybe you have a sense of this? Whatever stresses and challenges you are handling in the real world, I hope you are equipped with the tools to manage and address them.
To digress, I can’t imagine a company like Apple could become so ubiquitous by producing crap. A highly loyal (cult-like some would say) following can’t be enough to support that kind of presence, so I’m sure they make good equipment but my experience in my studio has been quite negative-so much that more than a few of our designers (using sketchup, render software, CS, some cad, etc) like to say “Apple for show, PC for go” due to the instability we have experienced when trying to accomplish things on the Mac. No need to grill me for hardware and specs as I am blessed with a couple of 20-something tech ninjas that source the hardware and know what their doing.
That said, I don’t let that experience scare me away. I would always be open to checking one out, but as I’m very happy with our custom PCs, the Mac solution is not really on my radar.
