To my brothers horror, Henry (his 20GB iPod) had a stroke and refused to start anymore, it just showed a file with an exclaimation mark icon, so we went down to our local Apple store (Regent St. London) and that store is exactly what made me switch, after spending a couple of hours in there waiting for someone to see my brother I couldn't see one good reason as to why I was using XP, everything about the place just seemed so simple, so easy and worked extreamly well, I sat and watched an iPhoto seminar (being a photographer this excited me quite a bit) then we spent some time using their machines, I was supprised how fast and stable they were.
Finaly a guy come over to us and sits us down to see what the problem is, they asked for my brother name (only once I might add) found his details and then asked what the problem was, we explained it all, I explained that everytime I connected it to my laptop (the only computer in the house at the time) it crashed my laptop forcing me to physically restart the computer. He connected it to one of his iBooks and the exact same problem happened, the application froze up totally, 3 buttons and 2 seconds later and his iBook had closed the non-responsive application and returned happily to desktop, I could feel nothing but embarresment for my Laptop at home needing a restart. He tried again, same problem, he opened a rather large cupboard behine him, removed a small package and handed over a brand new iPod to my brother, 1 signature on my brother behalf and we was on our way with "Henry's Brother," I'm not quite sure why he chooses these names...
2 weeks later and my opertunity finally comes, my laptop dies infront of my very eyes, but I could feel nothing but happy about it, and hour later and I had placed my order for my new 12" iBook G4 and this thing has way exceeded my expectations, 60BG HD and 768MB RAM are the specs, the Tiger compared to XP is as smooth as a babys backside and the software is great.
So thats my story, I expect I'll be a Mac user for a long time to come.
