[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 294882, member: 2960"] In my 20+ years of using Macs, and seeing many people change over from using Windows, I can assure you that running Windows on your Mac won't make "switching" easier. It will do quite the opposite. If you want to get a Mac, then a distraction or a "fall back" crutch like having Windows on the computer will only hinder things. There is nothing wrong with Windows, but the best way to learn and get used to using the Mac OS is to simply use it. The same way you learned how to use Windows. You didn't have any other OS on your system to "fall back on" when you learned Windows and you got the hang of it fairly well I would assume. Now you want to get a Mac, so you should follow the same practice with regards to learning the Mac OS. Wait at least a month or two before thinking about installing Windows on your Mac. Use it with it's own OS and learn how to do things the Mac way. Then you will really get the hang of things a lot faster. [/QUOTE]
