Why I Converted

I'm not a computer geek, and I don't usually talk about operating systems and hardware. I am not exactly into the Mac vs PC debate either. I have a PC at work and a Mac at home.

Recently, however, I am compelled to make a list, to answer the question people often ask me : Why Mac?

1. it takes 1 minute or less to switch on my Mac. I rarely have to wait more than that for it to load its stuff. My PC still does its morning lagging exercise and its evening lagging exercise (I had to send a quick email this morning and I did it in 3 minutes total, including having to switch on and switch off my Mac);
2. everyone talks about how cool it is to own a Mac. How the pictures are sharper and sound is better. I can't argue with that;
3. people say Macs are too expensive. But I think it's about whether you are content to drive a Proton or a BMW. I think the people at Mac deserve it because they put so much thought into the making of a Mac and into developing it to be better. And, with that one price, you pay for speed, sleekness, efficiency, technology and practicability. I won't argue with anyone about this, because you have to own one to be convinced;
4. my Mac is mine and looks like mine, and no one who owns another Mac has a similar one. You can tell at once which Mac is yours because Macs are almost fully customizable;
5. I use my Mac for work and play. Contrary to wrong perceptions, there is no issue with compatibility.

In order not to sound like a geek (which I am not), I shall stop.
