  • The Power of Uniqueness: Why You Can't Be Anything You Want To Be

A year ago today I bought a Mac

A year ago today I made one of the best technology decisions. I abandoned the Windows platform and became a Mac user.

There are few things more sickening than Mac fanatics. I have to be honest and say that Apple is far from perfect. The Mac OS has some quirks: installing and removing programs isn't as easy as it should be, and you should be able to sort bookmarks alphabetically without buying a separate program. Their product cycles are also too short. My one-year-old iPod mini was out of date two weeks after I bought it. They don't offer upgrade pricing on programs like iLife and iWork (and many people agree with this decision).

But I've never regretted switching to a Mac. My computer just seems to work better, and it's also just fun. And I don't have to worry about viruses like the Kama Sutra.

So if you're waffling, I can't give you any advice. Some of you like your Windows machines and that's fine with me. But I like my Mac.

(if you're thinking of switching, there are some good Apple deals here.)

Nice try, after my brothers hassels with his Mac I don't think so.

I never know who you are trying to convince. Us or yourself.

Trish: A Mac isn't for everyone. Arthur: Wasn't your computer on the fritz recently? ;)
