No product on the planet enjoys the devotion of a Macintosh computer. Famously dedicated to their machines, many Mac fans eat, sleep and breathe Macintosh. In The Cult of Mac, Wired News managing editor Leander Kahney takes an in-depth look at Mac users and their unique, creative, and often very funny culture. From people who get Mac tattoos and haircuts, to those who furnish their apartments out of empty Mac boxes, the book details Mac fandom in all of its forms. This paperback edition includes an all-new chapter about the iPod, updates throughout, and new photos that reflect current Apple technology. Annotation In this coffee-table edition for Macintosh enthusiasts, "Wired News" reporter Kahney surveys the devoted following that has grown up around Mac computers--fans who get Mac tattoos and haircuts, people who attend Apple Store openings like they are Grateful Dead shows, and counterculture icons who love the Mac.
