Subject: His-And-Hers Switch We were looking to get a new computer for Christmas. I had always worked on PCs... through college and at my job as a marketing associate for an investment firm. I thought I was a tried and true PC user, until my fiance and I started playing around with Macs at our local store. Hes a professional golfer and was looking for an easy way to capture his swing on video, edit it and send it to his coach for quick swing analysis on the road. His coach is a die-hard Mac user and got us interested when he showed us what he could do on his Mac. His coach had not yet ventured into OS X, though. We fell in love with the new Aqua interface and thought that the Macs were user friendly and ideal for our digital pictures, video editing, CD-burning, etc. Plus, the addition of an iPod could put music right into our hands. We ordered the new 800 mhz iMac, but couldnt wait for it to get to us, so we also bought a 600 Mhz iBook. We have the iMac at home and our iBook out on tour with us, plus all of our digital toys. We watch DVDs during plane trips, load songs into the iPod and take pictures using a digital camera, which we either email to our loved ones, or burn to CD to send home. It was a his-and-hers switch, with machines for both of us to enjoy! We love everything about our new Macs, theyre more user friendly and just make sense to use. The switch was simple... Were just not sure why we didnt do it earlier. - MG |
