I heart my Mac

by Kacey

My PC kept locking up. Still is. And I’m a geek. I’ve swapped out everything. Bought new memory. Took stuff off. Put stuff on. I mean I can BUILD a PC. But this one just defeated me.

Don’t laugh. I bought a mac. Yes, me, a life long PC user. A Mac Mini…and I’m in Love :love: Honest. I also got the program Scrivener and it is the MOST amazing software for writing. I’ll do up a review of it later, but for now, trust me. I heart it too.

I’m also doing the trial of Curio for collages for my writing. Not so sure on that one yet. I think a scrapbooking program on a PC would work well for that too. (but my PC and I aren’t on speaking terms. It does still hold our work software and my accounting stuff…)

Anyway, my techie sons have just rolled their eyes at me :roll: But, after thinking about it, they think maybe it IS the way to go for a mom with a creative bent. They’ve used Macs at school, so they are conversant in them…even if they are die hard PC boys.

And there has been some learning curve.

I say: “Son of mine, what the heck is the ‘Apple menu’”
Son says …after a brief pause and eye roll “click on the apple on the top left” oops!! :rofl:

  1. I still shudder at Macs, after one ate my disk in college and erased everything on it. :cursing: I’m a PC girl. And I loooove my laptop. :love:

  2. We all reach our breaking point eventually. :rofl: I used to laugh at Mac people. Now I am one. And, honestly? You couldn’t pay me enough to go back to a PC. Hate hate HATE Windows. :cursing: It is EVIL.

  3. Congrats on the new computer! (Even if it isn’t quite as new by the time I got around here.) I used to have a Mac and loved it too. Am now dealing with PCs, much to my dad’s chagrin.
