I would just like to clear something up: I am not a Microsoft hater.

Some people have taken my post about the Xbox 360 looking like a Dell as me just searching for an opportunity for some Microsoft bashing - this is simply not the case. Not only am I a happy Windows XP user for my main desktop, I also have a Windows Media Center in the lounge room that I also love. I keep an open mind to Microsoft products, and even though I took a shot at the 360’s design, I am currently considering buying one regardless.

That is not to say I’m a Microsoft lover either. This site is run on LAMP (Linux with Apache, MySQL, and PHP), I used to work as a Solaris cluster admin, and I use an Apple laptop. I see myself as pretty platform agnostic - each has its own benefits and downfalls.

I probably wouldn’t use *nix as my desktop OS, simply because I live in Photoshop and Dreamweaver due to my job, but if these applications were ported I would certainly give it a try*.

* I am aware of GIMP, but I have too many scripts and actions set up in Photoshop, and don’t have the time to set up the same in GIMP.
