- Your Mac's Specs
- 20" iMac 2.0 GHz Intel Core Duo, 12" iBook G4 1.07 GHz
I've been a PC user for nearly 14 years, but recently I had been contemplating switching to a Mac. The design and engineering of the Mac Mini had originally drawn me in, but I later decided that an iMac would be better for me. Last Friday, as I was preparing to reformat my PC as a last-ditch attempt to get things working, my computer refused to get past the boot screen. Instead of trying to fix a 5 year old machine, I got on my mom's laptop and bought an iMac 2.0ghz Core Duo. It should arrive on Friday. So, this week I'm spending time researching switching and lining up the programs that I'll need once my mac gets here. I look forward to learning about my mac and how to do things in osx. I also just purchased the missing manuals for osx and switching on amazon, so those should help me out.
Well, I just wanted to share my switching story so far. I wish it had been on my own terms, but at least this way the iMac was a necessity instead of a frivolous purchase.
