MAC: Stands for More Apt to be Creative
And PC stands for Poor Creativity. According to Mindset Media, MAC users are a lot like the MAC guy from the infinitely clever MAC vs. PC campaign. They surveyed over 7,000 people and found that MAC users are more open-minded, have a bit of a superiority complex and tend to be more liberal.
While they found several strong similarities among MAC users, they didn’t find many cohesive qualities among the people who use PCs. This makes sense seeing as the percentage of people who own a MAC is negligible compared to the number of PC owners. However there was one interesting thing PC users seemed to have in common.
"The one area where PC users did stand out as statistically different was in creativity -- low creativity, that is. Mindset Media found they tend to be realists who are emotionally steady and work well with what they're given."
Hmmmm…. As a MAC user, that makes me proud. Does that mean I have a superiority complex? Probably, but I’m open-minded about that.

Also, Mac users are much more likely to believe in evolution.
I like it that the Mac guys legs have been PhotoShopped to appear skinnier.
Every time I plug my iPod into my MacBook, I am sublimely content with the ease of use and operation. Like the comforting and blanketing silence of a twilight snowfall, everything just works. Order in my universe is maintained. Sure, I'm liberal. And creative. But as a former engineer with over 10 years of PC experience, I stop short of declaring Mac elitism. I just like stuff that works painlessly. Although, I do have an affinity for The Hotness...
