   I totally agree.
   I love Apple products, Typography, blogs and designbooks!

   Uh, shouldn’t the title of this list be “Stuff Emo Kids Like?” I think that sounds more appropriate.

   I can agree with most of the things, maybe add to number 24 holding multipages for portfolio shots as well. And definitively RSS.

    adam,

    Regardless of the order, what world are you living in that designers don’t love apple products? We have been Mac fanboy / fangirls since before it was “cool” to own a mac.

    Being a PC lovin’ designer, I still find it funny… because its so true and you know it.

    Kelly,

    I have a number of pc’s too. I have decided to make “the switch” with my next computer mostly because my latest computer has Vista and it seems to eat ram like crazy. However I do find it way easier to do web design and development on a PC, so I will always have one. But it is true that designers love macs, I mean how could you even argue that?

    Zinni… You’re absolutely right. I have been a mac fan long before everybody lost their sh!t and started jumping on the mac train.

    Funny! My designers all love Radiohead. Even the ones who don’t like Radiohead like Radiohead. If you know what I mean.

    I thought Threadless merch was over.

    Either way, designers like things to go out of style.

    Of course designers love all those, it’s what design is about, isn’t it?
