E-mail Convo....

A conversation this morning with my friend Juanita in Korea about why me (and my Mac) have been MIA for the last 4 days....:

Juanita: "Sorry you're having so much trouble with that computer, are you still an Apple fan? My computer is just fine.... it's quite reliable and dependable, You know..... maybe you should switch to DELL *wink/half smile*

Me: "Very funny! I am a dell fan. You should check out a blog I started actually inside the Apple store. It's called : http://whyihatemymac.blogspot.com/. If I could switch with no trouble I would. I am too scared to go back now, the only reason I am staying here in MacLand is out of fear. Total and complete fear and I've spent too much money to go back now..."

Juanita: LOL




Go ahead. Laugh. The crazy thing is that I SOLD HER MY DELL to get a MAC ! AWRGHH! That laptop is 2 years old! No MAC I've ever had has lasted longer than 5 months without serious problems.

In the Beginning....

In the beginning was a happy purchaser. A long time pc owner whose friends all owned macs. Attracted by the seductive beauty and color of the machines and the die hard mac owners that swore they would never switch to another personal computer. Never. Intrigued by the seeming fluidity of the Macintosh machines, the clean beauty of their brother and sister programs and the bias of every art instructor and independent business owner I began my research. Starting with basic technical comparisons I then moved onto consumer reviews. You know, Google. I "googled" terms like "i hate macs" and "mac hate" and even "mac problems" where most of what I came up with was tantamount to envy by pc owners or mac lovers who couldn't afford the constant Apple upgrades. So on July 1st, my one year marriage anniversary my musician husband and I made the plunge.

And this is our story....
