You're absolutely right about Firefox's mediocre name and branding, but the word "Safari" implies surfing the Web as well as exploring the jungle of the Internet beyond. Of course, it takes a certain intelligent, free-thinking, avant-garde type of personality to make the connection; your Mac-using friends probably ought to switch back to Linux or Windows.

"Arial is... a literally perfect substitute for Helvetica."

The above comment is brought to you, surely, by a fellow with no appreciation for detail; the happily tasteless sort of man who cannot sense the difference between saccharine and sugar, burlap and silk; a user just as ready to embrace the mediocrity of a Linux or a Windows as he is to accept Arial as adequately genuine.

This, folks, is why those of us with good taste will always prefer the Mac.

Nope, for that, you need a Mac.

Of course, if you aren't already a Mac user, don't even bother trying to fake it.

Apple's customers are like no others--a rich blend of the most sociologically elite with those seeking elegant, simple computing... Unlike users of Intel/Windows computers, a significant portion of Apple's users are active , exploratory , avant-garde and early adopters . The activities they enjoy are unique in the way that they more often incorporate rich media such as video and music as well as more active prosumer behavior than many more passive Windows [and Linux] users.

...of our good looks.

...of our good looks.

Are you smart? Are you creative? Are you sensitive to the sort of beauty, taste, and elegance that defines the Apple aesthetic? If not, please don't buy a Mac--God knows, we're already saddled with the likes of Rush Limbaugh, and we certainly don't appreciate you Johnnies-come-lately barging into our world. Time was, you could tell a fellow architect or dilettante by his or her choice of operating system. It's been getting harder lately, as Mac sales have increased 27% in the past year , many of these to refugees from Windows and Linux.

But if you are, indeed, a true-blue Mac user at heart, then allow me to be the first to say: Welcome to Macintosh!
