I'm using Windows XP (IT is upgrading to Windows 7 next year) at the office and will gladly admit that Windows (and the accompanying productivity software) meets my office computing needs but I'd rather run my blog and other code on LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl/PHP/Python).  For my personal computing needs I've made an <strong>informed</strong> choice - having had geeky experience and knowledge of many operating systems over the last 33 years - to use Apple products.  As the <a href="http://twitter.com/ShutterBugGeek" rel="nofollow">@ShutterBugGeek </a>put it:</p> <blockquote>While I don’t think Apple is perfect (no one is), their products are a perfect fit for ME.</blockquote>
