Hello! I'm a Mac, and I'm a PC =)

So, I spoiled myself today. As you can guess, I bought a new computer...not just any computer...a MAC!! Can I take back what I said about macs three years ago? I said they were crap and I would never EVER own one. But today...there was a sale at the UH Bookstore and I was just going to check it out and see what the prices were. Then this super sales guy comes out of nowhere and starts talking to me and my co-workers. Let's just sum this up with one formula: 1 Super Sales Guy + Two UH Workers on Payday + 30 minutes = 1 Macbook & 1 iMac sold. Total value? ~$2,000.

Okay, but here is what TOTALLY sold me. I admitted to him that I am a PC guy and that I wasn't sure if I could convert. But then he showed me something that just BLEW me away! It's called...ready for it? VMware Fusion. What is this you may ask? It's a program for the Mac that allows you to install Windows and run it in parallels with Leopard (or any OS X).

At first, I thought, nah...it can't run that well...but when he showed me...it was friggen better than my computer at home!!! (BTW, did you know that PCWorld rated Mac's as the #1 PC for Windows? Can you believe it? A mac runs Windows better than a computer MADE to run Windows!) So I thought about it, and I realized that I've had my computer for about four or five years...and I bought it for $299 on sale at what used to be known as CompUSA. So I thought...what the hell...it's time for an upgrade. And man was it an upgrade.

Everything worked right out of the box...I installed Fusion and Windows and it was easier than installing it on my PC!! I must admit that I think i am now an official apple-head.


Alrighty, back to playing with my computer and figuring out all the shortcuts! Darn PC vs Mac keys!
