[QUOTE="MacShane, post: 1539985, member: 159792"] The thing I find most interesting about those people - and I've known (and still know) plenty - is that they almost always, in just about EVERY case, have never touched an Apple computer. Those that have, only very little. They go on pure hearsay or what they have read and almost never know what they're talking about; cuz everybody I know, or have heard of, who has switched from Windows to Mac and I do mean EVERYbody, has never gone back. Never even heard of one case, where somebody switched (having given Mac a fair chance), didn't like it and went back. I'm sure there are people who have, but I don't know any of them personally. The biggest argument I hear (or read) against Apple these days, especially by journalists, is that if you buy Apple devices, you're stuck in the "Apple ecosystem", which I have just never felt to be true. I don't know about anybody else, but I get ALL my movies/TV programs/music and many of my apps from sources other than Apple. I feel more free with Apple than I ever did with Windows... Kind of off the subject. Sorry. carry on... [/QUOTE]
