I've been on somewhat of a binge over the last couple of weeks. It started with a purchase of a new Macbook. It was for my wife and after much negotiation, I finally relented. We brought her new toy home and immediately unpacked it. After about a minute I knew that this was no PC. Where the hell have I been? I mean I fancy myself as an artist and I never entertained the thought of buying a Mac. I was floored by the ease of use. Are you kidding me? This thing actually has an OS that takes less than a minute to boot up? But it has less processing speed and ram! Didn't matter. This baby was all about efficiency.
A week or two passed and I felt the urge to blaze my own trail in the Mac universe. I couldn't steal my wife's laptop all of the time. But I wasn't quite ready to commit to throwing down good, folding cash for another mac. Ebay to the rescue! Now I have to admit that I had a little trepidation in buying a used computer from the internets, but we are talking about an Apple product here. After much research I decided upon a gently used 20" Imac G5. Within 4 days it was on my desk. Even this 4 plus year old computer dusted my my supposedly best PC. It really is embarrassing. To think that all these years I was forced to wait for my PC to think about think about something, only to then ask me permission to think and then think some more. Simply crazy. I used to call Mac users Cultist or Fanatics. I now understand. Consider the Kool-Aide drunk.
More to come...
