  • And it's sad, because all 23 of those things actually happen.

    When I got my Mac in September, I was amazed how quick the setup was. It was actually fun to do I have to admit. I could just be saying that because I was so excited I got a Mac, but it was sooo much easier than setting up a Windows computer!

  • Alex, I know the feeling! I switched a few years ago and my mac still impresses me! Especially, right after I try to help someone with a Vista related issue...

    Also, I like your new blog... Killer Footer! Although, I don't approve of the whole New England Patriots thing...

    Ha. Unfortunately, that is pretty much right on target. (Referring to the ad, not previous comments.) :-)
  • I'm pretty sure the other comments are correct as well.... Just sayin...
  • God, I love Apple...

    I know it's sick, and it's stupid, and it makes me look like a mindless drone...

    But I really love Apple.
