I remember he got some type of Mac laptop while he was at Greatbridge,
but when they went bust, the parent company didn't know what to do with
a Mac, so they let him keep it. (I didn't use a laptop at the time.)
Might be the same one.
Anyway, it would make an interesting reason for choosing a Mac. I can
see the commerical now. :-)
I actually use a laptop running XP. I got it for the Win32 port, and
because I use putty/ssh, Mozilla, and Gaim 99% of the time, it doesn't
matter what OS I use. I could install a unix on it, but there seems to
be no need because all my unix work is done on my server via ssh.
