[QUOTE="Ciwan, post: 934335, member: 129813"] Hi Guys I'm new here, and I am getting fed up with Windows; surprise surprise !! So I wanted to get a taste of the Mac before actually buying one (still not saved the money by the way). I went to my University's IT Department and there, they have a couple of iMacs for students to use. So I logged in, I thought I'd be blown away .. but I wasn't :( Here is what I did not like: 1) Microsoft Word (Mac Version) took aaages to open, 10x as long as it does on my PC at home. 2) After browsing Safari for 1 minute .. it crashed ! :( I got a little pop-up saying Safari stopped unexpectedly and gave me an option to ReLaunch !! 3) I couldn't make things Full Screen !! the Safari refused to do it ! But Adobe Photoshop Did !! I visted my favourite website (kurdsportal) and the whole site looked a mess because Safari wouldn't maximize and so the whole forum on kurdsportal was squashed and real ugly to look at .. where as in IE on Windows it looks beautiful and neat ! :( Are there solutions to these things I noticed today ? PS: it was my first time EVER to use a Mac. I await your replies. Thank You. :) [/QUOTE]
