Those who supposedly just say 'why don't you just buy' are not being glib. On the contrary, they see it as really a simple answer to a not very difficult question. Many people asking for advice are not tekkies and are looking for a simple solution for their computer needs. Ever try to explain how to use a Windows operating system to someone that is relatively a computer illiterate (no insult intended).
Btw, never realized there was all this 'pent up' anger at Mac supporters. On the contrary, Mac users belong to a very helpful 'community'.
The OP posing this question is looking for a useful tool or trying to make (or avoid making) a fashion statement???? I see people using computers on my daily train commute, both pc and macs and never noticed the glowing icon....
