Mac Guy Living in a Windows World
Hi, I’m a Mac! Well, actually, I’m probably more like a PC (Windows, actually, since PC can technically refer to Mac, Windows, Ubuntu, or any other flavor of “Personal Computer”). I have several computers, probably too many to be specific, but the fact is, I have an obsession. And it’s called wishing I owned Macs! It’s not that they are shiny and look cool (although they most certainly do), but that the overall layout and feel of the OS fosters creativity and just feels so much smoother and clean. And for someone like me, that’s a very important thing!
The problem is, because I have several other very nice, fairly new, computers at my disposal, it would be nearly impossible to justify spending the many thousands of dollars it would cost to switch to Mac, not to mention the required software. Since I’m running software like Photoshop and Sony Vegas, which on their own cost as much as some computers, it would be a HUGE investment (err, actually not an investment because computers decline in value) expense for the relatively small benefit — being as how I can do pretty much anything on my PCs that I could on Macs.
So for now, I’m a PC. Although, there’s no saying what will happen several years down the road when these PCs need to be replaced!
