OH BOY, a MAC vs PC tread!!! I love these; they can go on and on and on.
Although, Widows is not perfect, I have found that each new version is better than the last. And about 95% of the stuff I had in the box still worked after the upgrade.
My worst computer upgrade experiences involved:
The transition to Mac OS X - what a nightmare! Threw away more hardware on that one! and that bug that would re-format your external fire wire drives - brilliant!
Oh yea, and that Final Cut pro upgrade (can't recall the version) where you could not open project files created in the previous version. To quote a driver in the great classic cult film “Death Race 2000” (when asked where his rear view mirror was) “What’s behind me, makes no difference!” (Funnier when you add the Italian accent to it.)
But then, Apple has always been a forward thinking company. Imagine, magnetically attached power cords!!! My cat is already planning devious things to do with that while I work on a tight deadline.
Oh, did I mention that I-pod battery thing – battery dies, buy a NEW I-pod.
Thanks Steve. Donate any billions to a worthy cause lately?
