Got a new computer this weekend and made the jump from PC to Mac. My husband is not a try something new kind of guy and I really didn’t think I would talk him into making the switch. Well, Boy #2 decided he just had to go with us when we picked it out (probably to ensure we had someone with a bit of cool factor with us) and we were talking on the way down and Boy is telling us that we simply must get a Mac because the monitor is “way awesome” and there is no tower, and various other things that have nothing to do with the function of the computer. I was trying to get him to tell me something truly relevant that would help my case (hubbie was getting a tad tired of hearing the word “awesome” at this point) when he finally said “Well, (friend) has never gotten a virus”. To which my husband (gotta love him) says in a frustrated voice “That’s because Macs don’t get viruses! They’re all written for Windows!”. A very short moment of silence after which I say “you’ve kind of proven his point there” at the same time that Boy says “EXACTLY”. Thus, we have a Mac.
So far I am in love with the thing (could be because the 27″ screen is incredible). I haven’t had a whole lot of time to play but what I have figured out so far is that it is SO EASY! My kids have already found out that the iMovie and iPhotoBooth are a hoot.  It’s going to take a while to get used to but I really think I am going to have no regrets. The little I have done has been pretty simple to figure out.Â
So, does anybody out there have a Mac? Or do you know someone that does? If so, what are the thoughts, the loves, the not-so-greats? It’s killing me that I haven’t had time to do much of anything. I do realize the asking opinions after the purchase is a bit cart-before-the-horse but I am interested in what others have experienced.
On a side note- the Green Chick bags are in and as expected each is very unique. There are two sizes and several different “features”. These aren’t going to be online, so you’ll have to pop in the shop to see them. – Susan
