Luckily, I don't have to use Windows at work nowadays and I no longer give a toss about helping others with their Windows problems either, so it's less VMs for me to maintain on my Mac OSX and Linux systems.

Weren't people buying apple intel laptops and installing Windows because it was really fast hardware but MacOS ran slower than Windows?


Actually, people were buying Apple x86 laptops because they were fed up with all the issues and viruses on Windows AND they believed they would feel safe knowing that they can always dual boot (or emulate) Windows if they find it hard to find the apps/games/warez in the macland. The build quality, the looks, the stability, the strong resale value of the hardware & software helped too. Many of them never looked back. Old mac users never liked them anyway - they call them switchers.
