After months — actually years — of claiming I’d regain my equilibrium by purchasing an apple computer, I’m proud to say, these blog posts are now being produced on an iMac! My new machine is streamlined and sexy in only a way a Mac can be, and oh so fast.
The minor glitches are that I’ve not purchased PhotoShop Elements for Mac yet (or any other great and EXPENSIVE Adobe products) so my favorite programs are on hold. At least til hubby can download the Microsoft platform for me to switch over to my Microsoft programs for a few Web design programs. For instance, Michael Rosenberg’s site needs a gazillion more glowing reviews of praise that I didn’t get a chance to update before the great computer switch. (So I’m scheming to set up the old computer in hubby’s office while he’s watching baseball this week.)
Usually my mother-in-law is a few steps ahead of me in the technology department, but I will now be able to tell her, “You ought to get a mac.” Though as a computer programmer her PC may be the better fit. They just need a speedy computer, as well as my parents who for some reason cannot even get an Internet connection. When my father called I told him there wasn’t much I could do on the phone, especially since he believes the virus protection programs were keeping him off the web. I told my father that he might want to call an actual computer tech person. I guess I could give them my old computer, even if it is a PC.
