Like you already know there's a big learning curve and since mac users are in the minority help sometimes is a problem apple has all things pretty much covered online..

Speed, never slows down over time like a windows weather it be over a day or year, Never freezes, never gets spy ware or viruses, can do just about anything a pc can, worth the money, less updates, less or no security holes, very stable, easy to use. I can go on if you want me to.

I agree with the never slows down part. As for the rest, :shrug: nothing else was ever a problem.

Probably the biggest thing I like has been the relief about spyware and virus' but I've really come to enjoy the operating system. Just the easy of having widgets at my disposal, the track pad responsiveness and finger commands. I greatly prefer the layout of the quicklinks bar at the bottom vs the start menu. Safari runs amazingly well and I like it more than I did Mozilla Fire Fox. I also find using the "Finder" to navigate around more convenient than "My Computer".

A lot of what I like is a lot of little things but all in all it adds up. I was worried when I switched from PC that it would take me a while to learn key command short cuts etc but actually they were really easy to learn and pick up.

It doesn't ever seem to slow down, as others have said, which is great as well. I really do love knowing that every day I turn it on, if I encounter a problem it won't be my computer it's most likely my damn router.

Yea I'm using a Macbook air version 1 and have had no issues so far solid.

Wow, that's completely opposite of what I like (other than the viruses). I can't stand widgets, the track pad is crazy noisy when I click it, I prefer windows' nav bar and my computer, I ever prefer firefox to safari (which was easily remedied). Although I could easily live with this computer if it wasn't for the fact is freezes once every couple days.

bigaudiofanat · 08-30-2009, 10:09 PM

Ya my 4 year old powerbook has only had one problem LMAO the charger failed finally so I bough a 20 dollar replacement the battery still ticks on and even has been dropped 4 times with dents and all still runs like the day I got it. I can use either safari or firefox both are good.

2theextreme · 08-30-2009, 10:11 PM

Well, I chose my PC FOR the viruses and the slowness....so....nanny nanny boo boo to you all!
