Really it’s the Windows users who’re crazy by Einstein’s definition - doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results.
Windows continues to be a quagmire of malware, tweaking, and things that don’t work quite right.
Macs offer a much better experience, and these days if you must run a Windows program or two they can easily accomodate that as well, while completely isolating any problems from the rest of the system.
Macs are easily the most flexible computer available, running Mac, Windows and POSIX software seamlessly under the best user interface available. It’s also the premier software development platform, including enabling over 100,000 iPhone apps.
Macs may cost a little more up front, but the quality, lack of problems, ease of use and excellent bundled software MORE than make up for the difference!
You can even download the software development suite at no cost, compared to hundreds of dollars for Visual Studio.
You are right on here. My son gave me a Mac Mini a couple of years ago, and being a Windows User through and through, I was very slow to start using it. However... now that I have been using it, I can’t wait to upgrade to one of these new models and get a new MacBook. I am dumping my Windows machine.
I never realized how much overhead and additional time and cost it was to be running Windows compared to Mac. I do a lot of sophisticated computing, and Mac handles it all very well. I have only two programs to run under Windows and can handle that with Parallels.
