I know I’m not alone. If you’re like me, you’ve invested in technology to become more efficient and productive but mutter about the many frustrations of the digital lifestyle. Technology is my hobby as well as my job, so I regularly ponder why software giant Microsoft Corp., which has more than $56 billion in cash, hasn’t solved more of these problems.

    If that guy hadn't said anything about using a mac in that article, it would have seemed credible...

    Yes, in fact it would have. Because the moment he mentioned "Macintosh" it was reduced to another Mac Flames Windows or Windows Flames Mac article.

    He's preaching to the choir at that point.
