Switch to Mac, then switch back?

Tim Bray, a Sun employee with a blog,
is "increasingly starting to feel uncomfortable in Apple-land." He's mad at Apple. He says so himself in plain English. He's irritated by Apple's "cult of hermetic secrecy" and the current legal events in the land of Macs and Honey. He thinks his 2003 Powerbook G4 Titanium is too slow and the screen "not great." [Wait a minute. is this the same Tim Bray who once said Powerbook had a "beautiful LCD
screen?"] But the real reason may be  "I work for Sun, I'd like to run our software."

He's considering switching away from the Mac. He's already ditched Safari and Mail in favor of Firefox and Thunderbird, but then he lists the things he'd miss about leaving the Mac behind – as if he wants to be talked out of it.I know people who have tried to leave the Mac behind, Tim. They don't last long. I can't help you with the Sun software, but I'm not convinced a Windows-based laptop is going to make you any happier. If it helps any – those Safari problems you were having will go away if you turn off auto-fill of "other forms" in Safari's preferences.

Does Bill Gates really make you less angry than Steve Jobs? If you have to think about it before answering, the answer is no.
