I have a deep seated loathing for macs if that helps.

Not just in principal but in actually trying to use them. I took a photoshop class at the local jc the other year and we used macs for it and... just everything about them fills me with loathing. The way the buttons on dialogue boxes are on the left instead of the right, the way they inexplicably use different incomprehensible symbols. Why the hell they put only one button on their mouses .... things I'm sure one who is accustomed to them find perfectly fine but for me it filled me with frothy loathing.
