Confessions of a platform agnostic

After last month's column on cross-platform software applications, I received a variety of comments from my more vocal friends and associates. The Mac mob gave me a hearty "welcome back to the fold" slap on the back (unspoken subtext: "we KNEW you'd be back..."). Windows users seemed almost cavalier in their attitude towards losing yet another user to the Mac mob (unspoken subtext: "You never really were one of us anyway..."). The Linuxtistas simply shrugged and said: "Dude, why don't you just switch to Linux, you're already halfway there!" (unspoken subtext: "It's inevitable-give in."). The more objective in the crowd simply said: "Oh you switched? So which one is better?"
