My new Mac
Thursday 30th April, 2009I have owned my Mac Mini less than a week and I am shutting down my Windows PC without worry of missing it.. This little thing is just amazing. At 6.5" x 6.5" x 2" it takes up almost no room at all on my desk. doesn't make a sound while running other than an occasional buzz of the DVD drive upon wake up.
I plugged in my monitor, keyboard, and Logitech trackball, turned on the power and watched as it came right up as if everything had been plugged in since day one. No installing of devices, just up and running.
It wasn't all roses though, I plugged in my Western Digital hard drive to transfer my itunes account and Crash! - (kernel panic)
Its funny that all I heard from people is that Mac's never crash but some how within less than 24 hours mine did!
All things considered though I have to admit it is very easy it is to use. Installing applications is almost laughable. The first time I installed an app I thought there must be more to it than that!
I was reading someone's blog the other day and a comment was made about the Mac vs PC advertisements. He said that he DVR's every show he watches and fast forwards though the commercials, except when he runs across a Mac ad. Instead he stops, rewinds and watch it, he even admitted that he didn't own a Mac! I had to laugh because I do the same thing, but now I can watch them and laugh as an owner!
