Hi everyone,
I'm a recent convert to Macs after years of using windoze. I use PCs at work (I'm in investment banking - no chance of finding Apple products there!) and have had two at home. The home PC was getting out of date and I was thinking about replacing it, when the new flat screen iMacs were announced. They looked so good that I knew I had to have one.
I've had my iMac for a month or so now and couldn't be more pleased with it. A few teething troubles were soon solved by asking for advice here (thanks Dricci!) and once I got a SpeedTouch 510 router and was set up on ADSL I was flying. I can walk into my study (as I did tonight), hit the "escape" key and have the computer ready to go in a fraction of a second, a single click on the browser icon and I'm surfing the internet - beats waiting ages for the PC to boot up! Everything I want to do (and everything my daughters need to do in connection with their schoolwork) is so intuitive and easy.
If anyone else is "lurking" here and wondering whether or not to take the plunge and change over from M$ to Mac, my advice would be "Run, don't walk, to the Apple store and get yourself a Mac. You'll never regret it!
