A late post tonight because of a surprisingly packed social calendar for a Monday evening. But I wanted to share something amusing (or, at least, amusing to me). About once a year, I go through my should-I-get-a-Mac phase, in which I debate whether to dump my PC for one of Steve Jobs’ confections. And every year, I talk myself out of it, mostly because I’m trying to resist pigeonholing myself into the stereotypical mid-thirties urban hipster poseur marketing demographic.
Well, my sixty-something father is loving his new iMac. I’m expecting him to soon start wearing black turtlenecks and purchase the Radiohead reissues.
You never know what will happen when you take the leap! AppleLand does truly separate work from play. I know they think it’s the creatives from the dull, not so sure about that, but it is great fun typing on my sleek imac…Glad your Dad is enjoying his leap into the hip/cool!
Mark, you would love a Mac!
Dude, once you go Mac you will never go back. What other machine can run ALL THREE major OS’s? I got OS X, Win 7, and Unix at my finger tips baby!!
