I know or know of about 8 Linux users that have migrated to the Mac.
Yep, they went out and bought one and stayed with it.  Some people like
them.

As for me, in the past 10 years, I haven't used a Mac long enough to get
over the initial frustration with UI differences.  So, I don't feel that
I have enough time on one to say it is better or worse or just not my taste.

Linux works well for me so I fall in your category.  Since Linux works
for me, why would I buy a Mac?  Well, I wouldn't.
