Did you 'Switch'?

Did you switch from the Microsoft platform or have you always been a Mac user?

navydevildoc · 01-03-2007, 02:16 PM

Well, both really. I have been using Macs since the original 128k!

Well, I never have really been a win platform guy. At least not in the last 11 years. Once I found Linux, I have been a faithful. However, I just now have begin to love OSX. I was amazed when I bought my daughter a flowere power imac off ebay. I unboxed it, plugged in power, connected the ethernet cable to my local network and turned it on. I did nothing else. It found my dhcp server and I was off and running on the internet. OSX just works great. Period....

I was a mac user from way back when... Apple IIe then to Classic Mac. I was forced to PC's at work and I've resisted it ever since. Now that I'm back to doing art and graphic design, my Dell's (to include a M90) just can cut it. Happy to be back

nice. I started out on an Apple IIc when I was like 5. So I haven't been able to stand using a Windows machine my entire life.

I switched, but I only did it for the free photo printer promotion!

Hi! I just became a part of this forum here and I would love to be a part of it. I love contributing to the community.I can probably add some humour to start with. Here are some funny stories that I read somewhere.A patient comes to a Dentist with a tooth pain.Dentist : Two of you teeth are infected and we need to extract them.Patient: How much will it cost?Dentist: Seven hundred and fifty dollars for both.Patient: What? Seven hundred and fifty dollars for 10 minutes of work?Dentist: Well, if you like, I can pull them out slowly!

Here is another one:Husband and wife have just left their home for camping. Wife: We should turn the car back! I forgot to turn off the gas stove and it might burn our appartment! Husband: It's okay, the apartment will not burn, I forgot to turn off the shower.The last one:A trial is in progress in the court room.Lawyer: Your Honour, if a person has 18 criminal records he is not a criminal. Judge: Then who is he? Lawyer: He is a Collector.Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed it.
