Switching to Mac from MS

[fanger]

You know, I've been using PCs for nearly twenty years and having finally made the move over to MAC -
I'm genuinely wondering where my head has been for all those years.

I'll tell you;

In MSCONFIG.EXE to try and try and try to resolve hardware and software issues on startup,

In ctrl + alt + del; invoking Task manager to stop this app, restart that app, see what app is causing the freeze before the crash, etc,etc ad infinitum...

In really shoddy interfaces of windows that don't really have a relationship with one another, they just 'co-excist' - not really 'joining-up' computing at all.

Here, on day two, of using the new MacBook pro and I find myself feeling absolutely liberated from the confines and confusion and sheer annoyance that was ms windows.

I just wish I'd done it sooner.

I'm not a newbie - I'm MSDN, Beta'd the hell out of Vista, project managed a team on divising compression utils for MP10, etc. - but those days are over. Sorry Bill. You've retired from MS and so, have I.

I am MAC.

Have a nice day.

I'm going for Vista desktop and Mac laptop. I really like the design of the Apple laptops and quite frankly couldn't care less what OS it has since I'm only likely to browse the net and maybe a bit of coding on it.

The only thing I'm not looking forward to about it is people thinking I'm some kind of crazy Mac zealot who detests windows just because I've purchased an Apple product *sigh*

weird...main reason for switching was vista: basically XP with the headache but in glass.
