The gaming pundits at Penny Arcade are now Mac users, and loving it.  Too funny, since they've made fun of the Mac and Mac users in the past.
Here's a quote from Gabe's latest entry:
I never thought of myself as the sort of hipster that would appreciate the Apple experience. What I am though is a proud dad and it turns out that’s just as good. I’ve already burned a DVD of lil’ Gabe, created a slide show of his pictures and sent them off to the grandparents. After a day I had my own .Mac site made using iWeb and I was photocasting by Sunday.
I can’t say much more than what Tycho already said. It’s just really f---ing good and that’s all. I found that any time I had a problem this weekend it was because I was over thinking something. I was looking for some sub menu or a hidden setting when what I wanted to do was right in front of my face.
Add in the fact that it plays WOW like a dream and I’m set. I’m not ready to star in one of those annoying switch ads but it’s safe to call me a convert. I’m not going to ditch my PC anytime soon but I actually get excited when I think about using the Mac.

What exactly is penny-arcade? It's been in the news a lot recently but visiting their website didn't really yield any information on what it is.

A couple of dudes flaunting the fact that they play games all day and get paid doing so.
They blog about gaming and other various topics and have an awesome comic strip.

They have always had a love hate relationship with Macs. Its just nice to see them say such nice things about them now.
Maybe we`ll end up with some cool Penny-Arcade icons soon.
