The difference is that you learned to bend your behavior and train your brain to deal with Windows. Apple bent the OS to deal with your brain. That's why it generally takes less training to get a computer newbie up on an Apple, although slightly more difficult for a Windows user because he has to unlearn his previous compensation.
. I just want to plug it in, do what I want and then turn it off again.
That's exactly what Macs are for. It's mostly Windows people who spend time fiddling with the OS itself.
How do you know what I adapted to? I'm sorry ... have we met? Do you know me personally or are you just generalizing?
Actually, if you read my earlier posts, I started off in Apple and upgraded myself to windows. And yes, I PERSONALLY consider it an upgrade, I could care less what computer you think I should use.
I am very happy using windows and if that make me a knuckle-dragging Troglodyte, then so be it.
