A Year In The Life Of A Secret Mac User
Just over a year ago my long-suffering Windows laptop decided enough was enough and stopped working. As writing software is my profession, and it being the only computer I possessed, I was forced to make a quick-purchase decision for a replacement.
After some research I was going to settle on an Acer TravelMate 8204 laptop, it being a logical progression from my existing TravelMate 800. With money in hand I ventured out and visited a series of computer stores and cubicles in Hong Kong's electronic forest, before returning home satisfied and with a shiny new computer - not an Acer, but an Apple Mac Mini - a major departure from my original plan, and the beginnings of a voyage into completely unexplored territory.
It's over a year now since I first tasted the world of Apple and I thought it would be interesting to write about my experiences, the software I'm using, and why my next computer will almost certainly be another Apple.
