If it’s anything like Windows 8, I will be an Apple user.

The last windows I used was vista that came on a Lenovo thinkpad. I scrubbed it and installed Linux . Then some time later, I bought a pocket computer, music player and cell phone; iPhone 3GS. Then a Mac mini, then an iMac, then an iPad.

An iPad 3 and iphone 5 later, and I’m all Apple. The Thinkpad still runs Linux, but I hardly use it anymore.

I don’t buy the latest and greatest every time a new model comes out, but Apple builds quality stuff. My 3GS sits in a dock connected to my home theater box, and I play all my synced music off it. And it’s unlocked, so I can put in a pay as you go SIM card and have a backup phone when needed.

If I had all the computing power and choices there are today, back when I was messing with TRS-80’s and PC DOS 1.0...... Wow!

I would have had a frick’n field day.

Now I just want it to work. I’ve done my time in Gatesworld - I’m done!
