| Switcher Hangout The place for switchers to discuss their new machines, and how to work with OS X. General support can be had here for newbie stuff, like "How do I restart my new iMac?" :) |
So who here has made the switch?

I cannot be held responsible for the things that come out of my mouth. In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus. |

- folks that have been Mac-users...and switched to PC (Windows computers)...and for some strange reason still hang out here.  - folks that may be thinking about purchasing a Mac...but haven't yet. - trolls! - spammers - etc. Maybe those possibilities add up to more than 1%.

As for the 1%, it would be the people on the fence about switching, or the jealous Windows PC people that come here to troll. 死神はリンゴしか食べない。 |

 On a more serious note, since I first saw the Apple Lisa and later the Mac Plus, I was always a Mac user in my heart but my pocketbook would not allow me to purchase one till years later. I really am a Dual User as I have to in my line of work troubleshooting Windows systems, but the Mac especially after OSX is what I use for 95% of my work. |
