Mac Progress

So, it’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve jumped in head first into the world of Apple. I’ve had some really good experiences and I’ve had some issues. Right now, my biggest issue is that the battery in my MacBook Pro is dead – done.

The thing has never really held much of a charge since it was given to me but it’s so bad, now, that I can’t even unplug it from the outlet without it just going dead immediately. I ordered one through CDW and it should be waiting for me when I arrive back to the office tomorrow.

Other than this, I have adapted pretty well to the MAC world. I don’t know if that’s a testament to the Apple’s ease of use or my ability to adapt to any tech environment as long as I give it a fair chance. I took this plunge into Linux and wasn’t as successful so I guess that the former holds greater influence than the latter.

I guess that if I did this a few years ago, I would have been justified in my macaphobia. It wasn’t until recently that Apple switched to Intel and made it possible to run both OS x and Windows on the same box. There were also far fewer games and cool apps back than compared to what is out now.

I’ve learned a lot and eaten a lot of crow and I’ve been pleaslty surprised many times along the way.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again … Microsoft had better take warning,
