The timeline goes like this:
- Boy starts programming on Commodore 64 and Apple II in Junior High.
- Boy uses PCs for just about everything computer related in High School, but uses Mac on School Newspaper. God Mac sucks!
- Young man uses PC in college. He learns to program on PC. He uses Mac on college school newspaper. God Mac sucks!
- Young man uses PC at first programming job. One coworker uses Mac. Mac won’t work with anything else in office. Mac will only speak one network protocol at a time. God Mac sucks!
- Man progresses on with career programming on PC.
- Mac OS X comes out. Man says, “Whatever.”
- Friend of man that works at Microsoft buys parents a Mac. Really?
- Man buys his parents a Mac to replace aging PC. They love it.
- Man buys a MacBook. He loves it.
I used a lot of Macs throughout the years. I don’t care what you say, all those old Mac operating systems sucked. The OS didn’t even look as polished as Windows. When OS X came out Apple really turned a corner. The operating system has just kept improving since then. Apple has launched a series of ads based on the fact that Apple actually makes an operating system that is as good, if not better, than Vista.
Microsoft strikes back with their new “I’m a PC” ads. They are actually quite good.
Microsoft has finally gotten hip. Well, maybe not, but at least they can put together a decent advertisement.
