I confess, I’ve been sliding towards Apple for a long time. I bought an iPod a few years ago, and used iTunes. My old PC/laptop is on its last legs (almost 3 years old), and everyone has been saying “buy a Mac.” I was hesitant until a friend granted me to try his, and I was hooked!

The best things about the Mac:
* No need for stupid, intrusive spyware. The PC-Cillin was nearly worse than the viruses it was supposed to protect me from.
* Simple to hook things up and get started. The MACBook found my printer and got it going easily and swiftly. Same with everything else. Windows always made things such a struggle.
* Everything I need (software, downloads) I can find for Mac. Like word processing. I use OpenOffice (open source, free stuff) and iWork. I hardly even use iWork!
I feel like I’ve been in a dark cave and just came out into the light. I swear, things just don’t have to be as difficult as Windows makes them. Why did I wait so long?
