Our dev team moves to Mac

I never thought I see that day that I would buy a Mac as a development machine. I knew I’d get a Mac at some point for my personal use (I’ve just been waiting for my PC to die). The Mac functionality and look and feel is just far superior for home use. We have been using our primary home PC for development since Nov and slowly but surely, Windows has been crapping out. The last straw was when Windows installed some patch and made it so that we couldn’t launch IE or a Windows Explorer window anymore. [Insert disappointed head shake.] Mike and I kept reading online that a lot of Rails developers use Macs now since it is UNIX under the covers and I presume because the OS it great to use. I have to admit, I already love my new iMac and we only just pulled it out of the box. I splurged for the one with the huge monitor since Mike and I code together and it makes it alot easier to see the screen from both of our chairs. I can’t wait to download TextMate and get started.
