Defection: PC January 10, 2009

Filed under: Life — Dharma @ 5:18 pm

I’m in the midst of migrating all of my files from one laptop to the new one; already I am smitten with the intuitive simplicity of the Mac platform.  I thought about the move for a long time, but then the MacBook Pros went on sale for less than half of full retail; meanwhile PCs have been giving me the business in just about every venue where I use them: the decision was made.

This morning I went to set up the internet connection and I plugged in the ethernet cord ready to tell the Mac about the network and all that good stuff, and it said, “I’ve got it – don’t need your help.  Behold!  The intarwebs.”

Everything is so much easier and I’m ready to trust a computer.  I never have before, but I’m feeling more confident in this machine than in any of the 5 computers I’ve owned in the past.  Old Faithful, a lovely Fujitsu Lifebook that weighs 13+ pounds and takes about 15 minutes to boot up: buh bye now.
