Just switched 2 days ago 😛. I've been an avid windows user all my life and in the past year or so have started expirementing with older macs. Now, I have finally took the plunge and gotten my first NEW notebook (mac or pc) and I couldn't be happier with my 2Ghz macbook. My RAM just came in today (2GB) and I'm going to install it later 😀

Interesting that the number of switchers for 2006 is the same as 2005 even though we are only 6 months into the year. I wonder if this rate will continue.

I sure hope that it does. I for one am glad to see Apple's sales increase. 🙂

Yes, the waiting can be a killer- that is why I went to the Apple store in King of Prussia Mall to pick up my MacBook Pro. But if you want your Mac BTO, then you have to buy it online.


Enjoy it when it arrives count chocula! 🙂

I switched in 2005 when they released the mini. My iBook followed shortly after.

Exact same with me. Bought the mini when it was released decided I needed something portable to take back and forth to work. So here I am with my iBook. Sold the mini though.

Mac user since the heyday of System 3. (Saw an occasional copy of System 2 floating around the school's Mac lab...this was back in the days when you carried your operating system in your shirt pocket along with your documents; never saw System 1 except retroactively as a hobbyist).

Only thing I can be said to have "switched" from was whatever the hell they had at our High School, which I seldom used and didn't like. Terminals at tables. Terminals without monitors I should add: you typed instructions on the keyboard and it would echo on the daisywheel printer in front of you; output from the computer was similarly typed out for you. Punch cards and readers if you needed to load or save data. Probably ran on bloody vaccuum tubes.

Never owned a DOS or Windows machine (or Amiga/Commodore/PET/Acorn/etc)
