Penny Arcade switches to Macs

Roughly 14 thousand people sent us a link to today's Penny Arcade (a web comic that the gamers seem to enjoy) which details one of the main characters switch to the 'light side,' as some people have put it.
This is a case of art imitating life since Tycho, one of the dudes behind this cult hit, has recently gotten himself a MacBook Pro which seems to have him questioning his entire PC life.

I liked his comments. Some of the most insightful I've seen on the PC-Mac debate; the idea of there being something...attractive about having to hack a computer, in ways. And nice to know those guys are open minded. Kudos to them for giving the other side a shot, at least.

The funny thing is, Penny Arcade now freezes up my "Say Cheese" dashboard widget.

The guys at penny Arcade have been slinging Mac jokes for years.
Here. I'll dig one up from about seven years ago (or so):

That's not it, of course. Just hit their archive and search for "Mac" -- there's more.
