I’m switching

Apple, Hardware 1 Comment

It’s a little late for Apple’s Switch campaign, but I’ve finally decided to toss my PC in favour of a brand new iMac.

Years ago, I started as an Apple user with my Apple ][ clone (APCO) that I got in the early 80′s after having a couple other proto-PC’s like a VIC 20 and a TRS-80.

Since then, I used a few Mac’s courtesay of roommates who were flush enough to afford Mac’s Mac II’s and a Centris. After leaving the relative comfort of Mac-owning roommates, I was forced to switch to a PC when my new job required that I have one at home. My Apple days came to an abrupt and sad end.

Fast forward 10 years and Apple has moved from the Motorola to Intel chipset, making PC Applications (running under Boot Camp or Parallels) possible. Now my work requirements can co-exist happily with my creative endeavours, including the hours of video I have shot with my new-ish video camera.

Once the rusty wheels of accounting get cranking at my work and a short delay for shipping, an attractive 20″ iMac will grace my desk!
