MAC or PC?

Have you seen the YouTube video “Mac or PC” Rap Music yet?  If not, I’ve put it here so you can either enjoy it for the first time or watch it again.  It really does a GREAT job addressing some of the strengths and weaknesses of each.  Here goes:

“Mac or PC” Rap Music Video – Mac vs PC

Okay, now that you’ve gotten your groove on to this message rap tune, I’ll make a confession.  I like Apple products…..a lot.  I’m on my third iPhone and I love it.  A family member just bought an iPad and they love it!  But my desktop and my notebook are both PC’s.

A bunch of my buddies are hardcore Apple anything.  And I get it.  But thy ALL tell me how challenging making the switch from PC to MAC will be for me.  And then they add, “but it’s worth it.”  Really?  I don’t know.  Seems most businesses are doing the PC thing.  Then there are often all these special instructions for how to get stuff to operate correctly on a MAC.  I’ve got enough challenges getting things to operate correctly on what I’ve already got.  I’m not sure I can handle unlearning something I’ve used for years and learn something totally foreign right out of the box.  Kinda sounds like a foreign language, you know?

Just within the last few weeks, I was in the market for a new desktop.  Once again the debate raged on in my head.  Do I make the switch or stay with the PC.  Once again, the thought of starting over on something I’m so familiar with served as veto power over going with Apple, despite great experiences with everything Apple I’ve ever bought.  I decided to give the new HP TouchSmart PC a try.  I have to tell you, so far so good.  It was easy to set up and get up to speed.  I had no problems getting everything on my laptop over to my desktop.  And the screen is HUGE!
