10 reasons why you should buy a Mac
Quote:8. Bill Gates ate my GUI

Yes, all the neat tricks Microsoft's been claiming give its Windows Vista that oh-so-cool 'wow' factor have been on the Mac for ages. Flip-through-your-windows technology. Smart folders. Bundled email, calendar and contacts apps. Translucent windows. Buttons that look shiny. Pop-up on-screen applets. Automatic data encryption. Bundled chess game. Been there, seen it, done it.

And there's no Mac OS X Basic with all the cool stuff turned off, thank you.

9. Still need Windows? No problemo

Apple has Boot Camp, Parallels has Parallels Desktop, VMWare has Fusion - and they all let you run Windows on an Intel-based Mac...

Re: 10 reasons why you should buy a Mac
Both of my brothers have Macs, my niece uses Macs, almost every creative type that I know uses a Mac............but, I don't, sadly.
I don't use a Mac primarily because I don't want to cough up the big $, secondarily because I am not keen to learn a new operating system.

Color me envious of Mac owners. Big Grin

Same for me though I enjoy the simplicity and familiarity of my older Windows OS. Have three friends that I know of right now that have gotten new computers recently and every one of them is disgusted with Vista. I asked about getting a new computer with XP installed but they won't sell any that way and I guess you'd have to either use your old install disks to get rid of the Vista or go with a Mac, which is becoming more and more probable as the days pass....

Maybe one of these Linux platforms is the way to go? I haven't a clue beyond knowing I DON'T require or desire all the "bells and whistles".

Linspire is the easiest Linux to learn.  Ubuntu is the most popular desktop Llinux and is easier than other Linux distributions.
