Those programs just seem easier to use on a Mac than a PC IMO. Sometimes faster too. And more stabilty, at least for me. You still get problems, but MOST OF THE TIME it's not the OS. Everyone's experiances may vary, of course.

No secret handshake. In this club, everyone is welcome. Even stupid people.

(note: I was NOT implying you were stupid BTW. And no offense to stupid people, some of my best friends are stupid)
 
Funny Times.

I have to say i find it funny walking into college.I walk past these computer rooms full fo pcs on this massive network containing thousands of pcs all over the network(of the college).

Now that not really that funny, but i recently took a look down in the media suite in the college and what did i find but a room full of macs, what else, all running photoshop and the like. As it turns out, pcs are only used for simple fuctions like browsing the internet or making up a word document and the macs are used for the important stuff.

So ive found out that out of the seven people heading up the computer services section of my college that five of them use a mac at home or at the office.

Now thats funny..
 
I've set up over one hundred Macs for other people (I do a lot of volunteer work). It almost always goes smoothly and has never left me bleeding and disgusted.

Today I set up a brand new Toshiba notebook PC with Windows XP, purchased yesterday. A protruding staple sliced my finger as I took it out of the box. :eek: I cleaned up the blood, connected the cables, and turned it on. It displayed a message about a checksum error and told me to go into SETUP and correct the problem. :confused: I straightened that out and got it to boot. It launched Norton AntiVirus and told me that I had a 90 day free subscription, ending March 2000! The system had the wrong date, and Norton AntiVirus set the trial period before I got to set the system date and time. :mad:

The reason I prefer Macs is that the total experience is better, from packaging to design to instructions to operating system to application design and integration to support. No one factor is the advantage; the combination is what makes them tops.
