There are about 25 million people in the world that own a Mac computer. Mac owners are usually become big fans of their computers, some compare macs to being addicted to drugs, that it is an obsession. The Mac communities is very much a sub-culture. Mac users are more loyal and dedicated than any other computer user. Why are they so loyal? Because Macs look nice, are fast and efficient, don't get any viruses, and are very easy for anyone to use, and they have great customer service.
The company's founders are known as "the two Steve's", Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. These two people have come up with and amazing computer system, that has become so popular, people have started getting tattoos of the icon of Macs, also haircuts, t-shits, stickers, and tags these things are all signs of Mac loyalty. Not only are there mac computers but there are now Ipods, which are sound audio players, but also have games and gadgets.
I myself own a Mac, and I love love it, I am a part of this cult, and I think this book just enforces my love for them. but I liked this book a lot because I got to learn a lot about the makers of Macintosh, and where they can from.
