yeah, i had a gaming fix, until i realized that i don't really have time for gaming any more. i'm lucky if i can finish a GBA title. 20 min. here, 10 min. there is about all i can manage these days.

i still do the occasional all nighter for gaming, but i either borrow a rig or we plan StarCraft. (still a favorite)

the final straw for me was when i got sick of PC only FPS games like CounterStrike. after that, it was a pretty easy permanent switch.

to me it was a combination of small factors. Windows was ugly. it was requiring a fair number of reinstalls. the security patches were getting out of hand. i was tired of updating AV software. basically i didn't trust my PC, and felt it was a little two timing bitch, the only problem being you never knew when you were being cheated on.

my mac i could trust. my PC was always waiting to give me a burning case of syphilis.
