Hey people of Mac-Forums. I am new here and wanted to say hi.

I am the IT Manager at an insurance company in Atlanta. About 7 months ago I needed to buy a new laptop to use in my IT department so I picked up a Macbook since it would run Windoze and all. Well almost instantly I realized that I would rarely run Windoze. I was hooked instantly. All of my negative preconceived notions about Mac were gone.

Although it isn't feasible for my company to switch over 100% to Mac any time soon I personally have no use to ever, EVER buy anything but Macs for myself and my family.

Anyways, I am now hooked on my Mac and love it like I have never loved a computer before. My real love in life (besides my family ;-) is vintage guitars, amps and all that stuff.

So there you have it. That's me in a shell the size of a sunflower seed.

Hey welcome aboard. I too switched to Mac's and have since bought two more for my family. Only use Windoze for 1 app that I cannot get for my Mac.

Welcome to the forums, always nice to meet a fellow IT guy. You are not the only person swimming in the Microsoft pond during the day and hanging out with the Mac crowd after hours :)
