Subject: Im a big UNIX fan I got interested in Macs due to Mac OS X. Im a big UNIX fan, and the idea of an operating system that was user friendly with a true UNIX core was very appealing to me. When I got out of school for the summer I bit the bullet and bought a PowerBook. I got it and immediately starting pouring all my data onto it from my Windows and UNIX systems. The networking just worked, I was able to access my files on the other systems on the first try. That was a running trend; everything I tried to do worked on the first try. My digital camera and all other USB devices simply worked the moment I plugged them in. And now instead of having two systems for my needs, I have one. Mac OS X accomplishes both the day-to-day tasks formerly done on my Windows PC, as well as all the programming tasks formerly done on my UNIX system. And in most cases, it handles those jobs better. - PP |
