Blogs are great because you can just make up words like “MAC-u-cating”, it really means duplicating.

Going Mac meant I had to duplicate my old PC working environment, it’s almost a joke to try to class a PC desktop as an actual working environment against what I now have on the Mac. This Macbook is just a dream, what a machine!.

So why did I go Mac and not go PC?
It came down to me wanting a new laptop with $2K in my back pocket ready to spend. I knew Macs were around but didn’t consider buying one until the

I've been a Windows PC user since 3.11 (or was that 3.1), I can honestly say I know alot about PCs, been there done that had the BSOD many many times. I will also make it clear that I do not claim to be any PC guru (There is always somebody else smarter)

I survived through Win 95, 98, 98se, Nt, Me, 2K, XP and gave up once they rolled out Vista.

Now i'm a mac user, I had used one before briefly about 5 years ago when I was working for a Wgtn office of Tech Rentals NZ. They had all the toys and we could play with anything we liked. Used to take home a Titanium powerbook j
