The Mac and the Photographer

Today I was thinking of the mac and photographers. What does the mac have for photographers? Are there advantages to being on the mac? I want to really look into this. I have been using mac OS x for the last 4 or 5 years. I have really enjoyed it. I bought my back when I was in between film and digital setups. It has been a wonderful experience. In the next couple posts I would like to spend some time looking at the mac and what it has to offer photographers, photo enthusiasts...you know what I mean (shutterbug!).....
