I’ve seen an influx of “5 reasons” or “7 ways” lists recenly on people’s blogs. I’m a guilty party myself. So, I thought I would do a little something different today as I make my first blog post from my new black macbook.
As you can see, it’s titled “One reason I chose mac instead of a PC.”
Here’s the one reason; in my opinion, the mac is simply just a better computer. (And you can make great photos with it as well).
I think Apple still has challenges though because even someone like me who wants a mac still hesitates on the purchase because of fear that I won’t be able to sync with other computers at the office. Who helped push me over the edge? Other mac users. The Apple Army. The switch is the hurdle, but I am happy with it already only two hours into using it.

Ah, but that is the beauty of Parallels. I got a macbook, and run OSX and Windows simultaneously with no drop in performance. The only downside was the nasty feeling I got when I put a Windows install CD into my mac. I wanted to get a loofa and clean myself thoroughly once I was done.
Three reasons I like your post:
1) One reason is easier to read than 5, 7 or 10
2) Your reason is compelling
3) I wish I had a Mac

Nice going on the Mac purchase!
You know, I got to thinking after our discussion the other day about your purchase, you should have looked at the refurbished section of the Apple store, you can usually find pretty good discounts and you might have been able to get a MacBook cheap enough to not pay the AppleCare out of pocket. Sorry, I’m a day late and a dollar short!
Spread the Mac Love!

I dont know why would anyone like to pay for parallels when there is vmware fusion for mac and its free. Also vmware is the world leader in virtualization.
I love mac..
