Good question. The only answer I can come up with is gaming. If I was interested in gaming I would probably use a Windows machine. I am not though.

You really think the only reason is gaming?

It's for the same reason we went to 120 FPS on phones. It makes the interface feel significantly smoother and more responsive, especially scrolling. Benefiting games is just a side effect. It gets to the point that 60 FPS systems feel slow to me now.

Ok, I'll take your word for it.

You don't have to. Look it up if you want.

I wasn't being sarcastic, I do believe you. :)
