Reasons to Use Inspiring Tools and Brands

I have always found that the aesthetic and inherent 'rightness' of mechanical tools makes a difference in how efficiently I am able to work with them. Working with Snap-On or MAC ratchet sets just feels better than using the equivalent taiwanese tools. I had not realized until just now that my feelings about developing using a Macintosh were probably related to the same sense of wonder/awe/respect :-)
