OS X ftw!

That's what I'm thinking. The whole thing just feels better to be using. Do you have to waste time tinkering with something or trying to fix something? Sure doesn't look like it with a Mac.

Exactly! I hate Windows networking, seems like it take an hour to get a unit to recognize the network, from my Mac experience (which is more of the Ford Sport Trac variety) you just plug them in and your going. Remember when you watched cartoons as a kid, and sometimes they would depict the year 2000 as this great technologically advanced space aged world. Floating cities, hover cars.
Several years ago I was thinking to myself how much those old depictions missed the mark, and that the world is nowhere near that advanced. Then one day I was traveling and took a ride on a very futuristic feeling subway train. And I thought to myself, You know, were not all that bad off technology wise. This could pass for the year 2000. Well, every time I use a Mac, I get that same feeling. So simple, so easy, yet so advanced and powerful. It is most certainly not a computer for people who don't know how to use computers, as I have heard Mac basher make claim. But the beauty of the mac is that it is can be given to a person who has never used a computer before, and they can learn how to use it much easier than they could Windows, this doesn't mean it is dumbed down, it just has a much less complicated and much more sufficient layout.
Hmmm, imagine a parallel universe where the Mac won out over PC. I wonder how much different the world would look...
