yes --- it is a terrible use of stock photography -- just lazy design I doubt Microsoft was trying to say "Hey we work on a mac too"
BUT let's exa-- and i may very well be saying what everyone is saying already but Microsoft is in the business of selling the OS not the computer it runs on.
Apple going intel, and introducing bootcamp could not have been a better boost to Microsoft.
When I was working on design/photography There was nothing I needed windows for. But the moment I left and changed my focus the need for windows creeped up.
Do i need to run a lot of Windows software? no, I can get most of my work done in software available for both platforms (and i'll choose the OS X one whenever available) BUT there is a hand full of products and services that I deal with who's proprietary software does not have a Mac OS version developed.
So, I went out and bought Windows and installed it on my mac -- Microsoft profited on me just the same as if I bought a Dell, or an HP with it already installed.
I'm sure there are plenty of members of this forum that are in the same boat. And many off us don't have the desire, OR even the space to run two separate computers so we appreciate the flexibility of an all in one solution both hardware (iMac) and Software (dual boot OS)
