Sunk costs is a reasonable ...er... reason for not investing in a new
platform.
Unlike Uncle Moneybags Piwowar, some of us have budgets and limited
resources. We have to live within our means.
We can run Windows on our Macs. We can run Windows programs without
Windows. We can run Mac OS X on our Macs. We can run Linux on our Macs.
Buy one, get two/three free. Macs have longer useful life than PCs. Buy
one, get three/four free.
Living within our means includes planning ahead and getting the most
useful and long-lived computer. A PC that costs $700 is more expensive
than a Mac that costs $1200 due to installed hardware/software,
versatility and longevity of the Macs.
Plan ahead.
