I'm okay with it. I keep it around (running under Parallels on my Mac) to run Revit and a couple of other "only-available-on-Windows" apps that I need. I suspect in a year or two all that stuff will have Mac versions or I'll be able to work around it using comparable Mac-based programs (I'm transitioning over to Vectorworks now and using that in lieu of Revit even though it's not the industry standard - I can still use it for most things I think... So far so good.)

I'll probably keep a PC around "just in case" for a few years but I'm 90% over onto Mac OS now and I doubt I'll be going back to a Windows-based platform for my primary tasks. The Macs are just so much better, especially for what I'm doing. I just hope Apple doesn't turn into Microsoft (a few moves lately make me fear they might be doing this, but they're still the best game in town by a longshot...)

Disclaimer - I just bought a 27" 5k retina iMac as my primary workstation - it's amazing so I know I'm sort of gushing about it, but that picture - wow!
