Long time “PC Guy” Gone missing… Hello “Mac Dude”?

Marty Sullens October 23, 2009 2

mac-vs-pcQ: First OS? A: Windows 3.1 – Q: Most hated and most loved OS – A: Windows ME, and Windows XP OSX 10.5.

Did not see that coming did you?

Well let me be perfectly honest, I used to hate Mac with a passion (1998ish-2005ish) but then when Leopard come out I finally decided it was worth giving a go at – So I did what any other hardcore “PC” guy would do, Hacked it…

Ok so I got OSX86 running on my desktop, errrr well working somewhat anyway – the display drivers where wobbly at best, and for some reason I had to unplug-plug in my PS2 mouse after every reboot or power up. <– What a pain in the ass…

Nonetheless it was working and I loaded up dreamweaver and fireworks to see how the working environment was, and it was.. well – Smooth and polished and downright beautiful, the OS was 1000x prettier then XP and had a fluidness I’ve never seen before in a OS.

Ok so I liked it, now what? – well I could not afford any Apple hardware at the time and decided to just wait it out and go back to XP as I could not take how unstable it was on my hackintosh.

Now about a year later I needed a new laptop, I did not even look on Newegg or Compusa – No I went straight to Apple.com and started hunting.

- 4 days later my baby arrived

macbook Yes it was a great experience throughout, and after inspecting every aspect of the hardware I just set there in Aww.

Never have I seen such a polished piece of hardware – I’ve owned 3 PC laptops before my macbook and they all seemed like flimsy pieces of plastic. It was flawless, and I could not get over the quality and attention to detail.

Oh no!, I saw it… There it was staring me in the face – and I just set there in disgust knowing what had happened to me…

I had become a “Fanboy” – Opp! oh well got over that pretty quickly.

Ok so now my advice, Apple desktops are still too expensive, I mean the new iMac’s are looking pretty good and they are coming down but still pretty expensive.

If your looking for a new laptop, don’t even bother with anything else then a Macbook / Macbook Pro – you are just wasting your money, you cannot beat the quality and battery life of a Apple laptop.

So stop trying, oh and another thing – Stop trying to say the G1 is better then the iPhone, You know your wrong and are making yourself look bad..
