Hello all,
I have been a PC user (build my own) for 20 years. I am tired of hating my computers.
In 2008, I bought my first apple products, Iphone 3 and airport express and liked it. 2010 iPhone 4, love it and still use it daily. 2012 iPad 3 and Apple TV 3rd gen.
Now my 7 year old, 17 lbs PC laptop is dying with BSOD on a regular basis
I have been interested in making the full move to apple for about 6 months and just pulled the trigger on a 13" haswell MBA maxed out on everything. I also included a new 3TB time capsule. I am very excited!
Here is my current situation and configuration:
-I travel for work 100% of the time and live in hotels / corporate housing. I move to a new location every 2-3 months. So as you can imagine living out of suitcases means going as minimal as possible.
-I have a 17" colossal PC laptop that is reaching the end of its life.
-Connected to the PC via USB is a 2TB WD my passport with all my photos, movies, music, etc. This is my itunes library and is about 1.5TB of data.
-I have an airport express to create my apple network.
-I use the Apple TV to connect to the typical flatscreen LCDs that are in every new home I have.
-Also have a new Bose airplay to have nice sound for my movies and stuff.
With all the above items and the new MBA and Time Capsule, is it going to be easy with the Mac to set this all up? Can I put my Itunes library on the 3TB Time Capsule? What would you do with all this stuff?
Cheers everyone and HELL YEAH! I will be getting a Mac soon!
TL;DR what now? HAHA
