On Tuesday October 14th, Apple announced revisions to both the MacBook and MacBook Pro. The gist of the changes to the MacBook Pro is a hardware boost, new one-peice aluminum body, bigger trackpad with mulitouch and no button, and the biggie: a glossy, reflective, glass screen.
Are all the Mac commercials getting to you? Are you thinking of getting a Mac? Before I got my first Mac a few months ago, I took some time to research the real differences between a Mac and PC. Because of my web & graphic design background, I have always felt some pressure to switch to Mac but I had no real idea what the benefits would be. Afterall, the Adobe suite is available for Windows and Leopard.
After months of playing with unstable install of OS X on my Thinkpad, I bought my first real Mac: a 15inch MacBook Pro. The first thing I did was look for apps to replace the ones I had used on Windows XP.
Not only was the switch to Mac easy but the quality of apps was actually better than those I used on Windows.
