I switched to Mac early this year when we needed to change the slow old computer, but thinking in the new Intel Macs as we had to stuck with Windows because we still need to use very few software (but very important to us) made only for this OS. I knew something about Apple computers, I used one in my last work; the place where I used to read emails some years ago used Mac, too, and my brother had one I loved. I knew, that they were a bit different, not only in design and style but in price and performance. But anyway, as my birthday present, I bought the iMac Intel Core Duo.
I can’t say how happy I am with this machine. I amazed with its performance, the Mac OS loads 4 times faster than the Windows OS, it never crashes and very few times software stuck but you can always recover the work done.
I have discovered a new of doing things and have to say that I like it. Ok, I say I have to keep my win xp because of the very few software I need. Two of them are Autocad and 3D Studio, and yes, I did try with other CAD software like Archicad and Vectorworks and there is still something that I miss from Autocad in both of them, that’s the UCS function; and for the 3D, I’m really not in the mood for learning something new like Maya or 4D Cinema or even Solidworks. The other one is Freecall, offering the cheapest VoIP calls I found (they say in their site they are working in more OS but no news for now). But for everything else I have great programs for Mac and they so easy to use.
So, from now on I’m staying with Mac forever (and keep asking the programmers of the few win software I use to work on Mac development!).
