Funny this came up, because about 5 minutes ago I used a wintel for the

first time (my coworker loves 'em). I too grew up on mac and hate that we

get forgotten for software, etc. But I've been trying to stay true.


However, the prices are more attractive and the software is everywhere

(especially for designers and developers) and my son wouldn't know any

different.


Anyway, just used it and I feel like I had an affair, cause it was so nice.

True multitasking (I was scanning and copying files at the same time!) and

it was fast!! Had a mac going at the same time and I scanned 5 pages in the

time it took the mac to scan 1. So, sorry Apple, but as soon as the loan on

my G3 is paid off (or maybe with my next bonus), you're gonna have one less

advocate unless things change quickly!
