Quote -  Well, I never had a PC before. Have been a long time Mac user (and still am).

The reason I "switched sides" was Vue. Was using Vue on a Mac for some time and ran into many of the bugs that Artpearl decribed (I really understand his frustration).
So I had to decide wether to stop using Vue or to run it on Windows. Given the fact that I had heard many frightening stories about Microsoft the decision was not easy.
But then your various posts on PCs as well as your positive attitude towards Vista gave me confidence.
And finally I took the step and bought myself a PC along with Vista 64.
To be honest, at the time when I went home and had the machine assembled by a friend, I did not expect anything to really work
...but much to my surprise things went fine from the beginning.

When I installed Vue and ran it for the first time I could not believe how smoothly it was running (compared to the Mac version) and after an hour or so when Vue still had not crashed I knew this was the right decision.

Ok, I must also say that my Mac has only 3GB of Ram with a dual 1.8GB CPU, so my PC is actually a big improvement.

...so much for penguinista disinformation (and fruity ;-) cultism).

Does anybody really believe that if Windows had so many problems as some people tell, 90% of computer users would continue to use it?

Bye!!! (...and welcome to the dark side...)
