![]() I dumped windows nearly a year ago, moved to linux, opensuse to be exact, and the experience is just amazing, brought the computer back to what it should be, one of enjoyment and not the hassle that windows has become. Plus there is the whole life long memories and experiences with ufo etc that I am trying to understand, anyway, I have wondered in my thoughts. I have trouble being around people, was outed, bullied, harassed in high school and that left some big problems within me not coping around people ? so at present I don\’t work. And hey, I\’ll admit it, the vast majority of software on my computer was pirated. ![]() It got to the point where I simply had lost all enjoyment from my computer. Spyware, virus full scans every week, running programs to clean the cache and history etc. Our school had mac\’s, I couldn\’t stand them, lol, but have always wanted to try these more advanced macs around now, but alas, they are just too expensive for me ? My last windows experience was XP. I went to high school in the late 80\’s early 90\’s, finishing in 92. Im not an Apple fanboy, but I love me some MacBook Maybe 3 or 4 times in months.įinally, i LOVE the fact that it boots up in 1/1000000000 of the time it takes my PC. It can sit there for hours and then work when I open it up. Sure there are work arounds, none of which are quick and easy for a longtime PC user.īoth of these are easily offset by 3 simple Mac elements that make me very happy.įirst is that when I close my MacBook without turning it off, it doesn’t lose power. I know its a Mac thing to only have one button, but its a hassle. ![]() ![]() The 2nd problem is the lack of the right mouse click. But I only do so after deleting unimportant emails from the server using my Macbook. So i am keeping my PC Desktop purely to download my emails into Outlook so I have a master database. As someone who has more than 10 years and gigabytes worth of emails in multiple outlook files, the concept of exporting and importing wont fly. One there isnt a version of Outlook for the Mac. Its not that there arent hassles with the Mac. So a few months ago I made the executive decision to buy a MacBook to replace my laptop. This wasnt just a problem on my Desktop, it was a problem on my laptop with Vista as well. The thought of someone calling me and asking me to go to my computer to find something was paralyzing (ok, not that bad, but it sounded cool writing it). I had gotten to the point where I was embarrassed to be a PC owner. But the annoyance factor was beyond belief. My first step was to get a copy of CPU Magazine with Vista tricks. When it also causes the system to freeze, its more than just a problem. Then as my email was downloading, the rules would stop working and everything went straight to my inbox. I could follow memory numbers as they grew and grew. The application has to have a memory leak. The biggest culprit was MicroSoft Outlook. Enter Vista and my PC was frozen more often than it was working. I had grown accustomed to my PC freezing every now and then. I honestly thought there would never come a time where I would buy a Mac. Back in the late 80s I owned a Mac, I think it was a Mac2. I sold and bought my first PC a long, long time ago.
