I agree with the article 100%, especially the following.

1. Ignorance Ignorance is merely a lack of knowledge, and when it comes to Macs, most Windows users, myself included, are extremely uninformed. My experiences with Macs were mostly pre-OS X, before the really good stuff began to happen, and I made a decision that Macs were not for me and never looked back. Many Windows users think they’ll have to “re-learn everything” and that nothing will be familiar.

I had that exact feeling the first time I used a modern Mac. And it is the same reason I am unable to convince anyone in my sphere of influence to switch.

8. Mac Users Okay, I’m not talking about you or me here, but there are some Mac users out there who have just a little too much love for Apple. When they are shouting (or typing in all caps) about how much better Macs are, they’re not convincing anyone to switch, they are scaring them away

I have mentioned this before and it was the number 1 thing keeping me from getting a Mac for so long. It’s none of you (although John gets close sometimes and Josh wishes he did), but it’s the others. Perfect example would be Mr. Daring Fireball who, just last week, got close to 20K views on picture at Flickr that described his true hatred for the menu bar.

You should check the article out. It’s a good read and all of it’s true. And, in my opinion (whoa, I can still spell that), all of those items need to change before Apple gets serious traction in the PC World. Sure, market share is up, but how much more can they get? 1%? 5%? Big deal, especially when Dell and IBM rule the business and HP and Gateway can barely keep CostCo stocked.

And don’t even get me started on the gOS PC. That thing is going to seriously cut into everyones sales this Christmas season, assuming they can build them fast enough.
