Yes, that's the thing about Macs, you tend to end up with more than one, and sometimes even more than 2.

5 here, between the 2 of us (and not counting iPods)
We fed an iMac after midnight. Big mistake.

Got to love 'em
For sure I was very big in to the whole PC thing use to love to build them and update them ect.
But they are so so unstable, the software is shit, there are way way to many conflicts, and they outdate very fast
I have been using macs for about 3 years fulltime and just love them, waiting to get a new imac (cant wait) now being able to run windows on macs i think will bring alot of people over, but ever with that option i dont think i will ever run windows again.. there isnt really any point for me.
Welcome to Mac, now using a computer is enjoyable and fun! (and you never feel like throwing a mac out a window)

Very true ! I started off with a Macbook Pro, loved it, and then thought i really need a desktop for home use so i bought a iMac and found that even better then the macbook, now ive already had a thought of a mac pro :P but im not going to go there just yet. |

I know just how you feel, I'm a recent switcher. Macs seem to generate a passion that PC's never did and never could.

Actually that's a good poll - how many members have more than one mac?
