Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Why is it depressing? Oh and having a sidekick is far more stylish than owning a mac, at least I think that's the general consensus from the public.

G4 Powerbook-love it, and may be picking up a G5 mac for cheap soon (though right now on sister's crappy toshiba laptop in florida).
I really need to get 10.5, or at least 10.4 because apple is the devil with its OS (and new ipod cannot talk with my computer).

Bikes: Too Many

PC b/c thats what my industry uses and what my company's IT dept supports. I guess I could use a mac now b/c of programs like Parrallels. Anyhow, using a MAC would just be too much of a liberalist move for me.

PC, because I like building them from the ground up and switching out parts whenever I want to... just like my bike. (xp / ubuntu dual.) osx is nice though, so each to their own.
