> And a thinkpad running Linux is just not doing it for me. I want my power efficient mac hardware.

I'm using a decade old thinkpad running linux and it is definitely 'doing it for me'. And I'm not exactly a light user. Power efficient mac hardware should be weighed against convenience and price. The developer eco-system on Linux is lightyears ahead of the apple one, I don't understand why developers still use either Windows or the Mac because I always see them struggle with the simplest things that on Linux you don't even realize could be a problem.

Other OSs feel like you're always in some kind of jailbreak mode working around artificial restrictions. But sure, it looks snazzy, compared to my chipped battle ax.
