To have a Mac means more than just owning a computer, it means that you ride a really hipster-esq FG or SS bike that has both risers and aero-bars, platform pedals, and no brakes. Maybe I am biased because I don't live in San Francisco, but I think Macs are more about saying that you own a Mac and like to use the WiFi in Starbucks than they are about having a decent computer. To demonstrate my point I present you with the link http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse....gi?u=macs_cant, which will perfectly outline the way I feel about Macs. But, in the end I still live by the saying 'to each his/her own." So, whatever.

It's not always about lifestyle. I rely on mine to make a living. Could give a fat rats ass about hipster crap or messenger bags. I'm an old fart that's been using Mac and riding fixed longer than most have been born. Oh..I don't live in SF either but....it's a cool place.
