Mac people vs PC people
There is little doubt that the self-perception of “Mac people” and “PC people” are often completely different, just as the way they look at their counterparts differ. Still, it’s surprising to see just how much difference there is in these perceptions.
This graphic by our friends at Hunch breaks down the debate that has been raging for over a decade. Are you a Mac or a PC? Or neither? The debate will go on as long as both computer types dominate the marketplace.

Macs are great (although i don’t own one). Mac fans (at least my friends) are really fanatic and sometimes i feel like they are trying really hard to make me join the cult! 🙂
I’m a PC (read: Windows and Linux) person. This seems about right, although while I know it’s the point, but most of this is pretty subjective (referring to the sections where people see themselves as blah), I’m interested to know the proportion of Mac/PC people are the way they think they are. Also, yeah, Mac people are unique and different, just like they’re brand whiose products all look exactly the same and have not changed in a decade. Also, of course you’ll think your a gearhead when you run on a system designed to be simple and not show you how far the rabbit hole goes.
Translation: Mac people are hipsters
Hipsters who drink what they’re told to drink by movies, read what they’re told to read in high school, and buy what they’re told to buy from the “unique” and “differently thinking” Apple Computers.
Maybe, but 80% more likely vegetarian sticks out – that isn’t media influence or peer pressure or education. That’s standing back, taking stock and making a choice. Or rebellion. IMO. Still, other 20% might be sheep 😉
As opposed to the Windows users who buy what they’re told to buy based on “industry standards”, so they can conform to the same things that all the other non-creatives are using?
1. Apple is the most Creative tech corporations in recent tech history, which gives Mac a lot of edge.
2. What if we have an easy way to do OS switch from time to time so that we could at least try to cross the ‘culture’ line…
