Windows or Mac?

Windows or Mac?

There is a lot wrapped up in your platform of choice, your OS.  The answer to the question Windows or Mac, I think, says a lot about a person.  Having just spent the best part of two days upgrading my multiple devices to Windows 10 and Office 2016, my loyalty was challenged.  As with all ‘upgradeathons,’ I had my moments cursing the many teams of Microsofters who put all the pieces together.  In the end it all worked and seems to have been worthwhile. I remain a Windows guy.

Our household enjoys a Mac culture too.  We’re eclectic!  I still can’t live with it all ‘under the covers.’  Where is that file?  Where is it stored?  And where’s Ctl-Alt-Delete in all of its beauty?  How do I force close an application?  These are important things to know!  Alas, with my Mac experience, these questions lay waiting for answers.  It seems to work, but how it works remains a mystery to me.  A mystery I cannot accept.  It seems I need structure and control.  I must not trust the ‘Mac OS.’ What does that say about me?  Hmmm….

Now then, boxers or briefs?  Hmmm….

  1. Although a Mac has it’s quirks and yes, not knowing where a file is hiding irks me but it’s a much better O/S than Windows. I was a Windows guy for over 20 years and after getting a Mac for my birthday 4 years ago, I’ve become a convert. I still work on PCs but the issues are about 10 to 1 between the two platforms. I’m currently reverting a Win10 to Win7 for a friend who regrets doing the upgrade. Oh well, to each his own and as long as it works for you, don’t worry, just be happy!
