I am trying to get a list of good Mac quotes. I have found some with google, but they're scattered and scarce. So please, contribute your favorite Mac quotes here.

These are some I managed to collect.

"I believe in God because there is no other explanation for Apple’s continued existence."
-- Guy Kawasaki


"Within the computer industry, the description 'more like a Macintosh' is always a high praise. The description 'more like Windows' is rarely used as praise."
-- The Seattle Times


"The Macintosh may only have 10% of the market, but it is clearly the top 10%."
-- Douglas Adams


"Never ask what sort of computer a guy drives. If he's a Mac user, he'll tell you. If not, why embarrass him?"
-- Tom Clancy


"Regardless of how Apple corporate wants to portray its products, the Mac isn't a machine for the masses any more than red wine is the preferred beverage at baseball games. To be honest, the masses don't have the capability to appreciate the elegance and depth of this platform."
-- ???


"To create a new standard it takes something that's not just a little bit different. It takes something that's really new and really captures people's imagination. And the Macintosh, of all the machines I've ever seen, is the only one that meets that standard."
-- Bill Gates

Folks, the Mac platform is through - totally. (John Dvorak, 1998)

To see tomorrow's PC, look at today's Macintosh. (BYTE Magazine, 1995)

DOS Computers manufactured by companies such as IBM, Compaq, Tandy, and millions of others are by far the most popular, with about 70 million machines in use wordwide. Macintosh fans, on the other hand, may note that cockroaches are far more numerous than humans, and that numbers alone do not denote a higher life form. (New York Times, 1991)

The Macintosh uses an experimental pointing device called a mouse. There is no evidence that people want to use these things. (John Dvorak, 1984)

"The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. I don't mean that in a small way. I mean that in a big way, in the sense that they don't think of original ideas and they don't bring much culture into their products. I have no problem with their success--they've earned their success for the most part. I have a problem with the fact that they just make really third-rate products."

--Steve Jobs, as quoted in "Triumph of the Nerds"

Have fun... Tony.

"If I were running Apple, I would milk the Macintosh for all its worth. The desktop wars are over, finished. Microsoft won long ago. It's time to move on to the next big thing." Steve Jobs
