I am a PC and have been since the 80’s, but my heart is starting to lose its market share for the PC. I know that some of my friends and co-workers will probably give me the “I told you”, but when a company does things so well, it’s hard to ignore.
My wife has an iPhone and I want the iPad because of its mobility, design and overall usability. It’s so damn cool and I want one! I no longer have a desktop, but I do have a two laptops that I bought 8 months ago and should of used the money towards the iPad. I use a computer for browsing, blogging, researching and email and not for high-end graphics or gaming, so the iPad will have the perfect home.
I am heading to court this week to officially divorce myself from the Home PC. It has been somewhat faithful, but there’s a new girl on the block who is much leaner, friendlier, prettier and easy to take care of.
I am not sure if I will make the move to the Mac just yet. I may wait until next spring to purchase the new Mac Air.
My divorce letter
Dear PC,
You have been a friend that collected dust, demanded reboots and seem to always catch a virus from time to time, but I must let you go now and move on to smaller and better things in life. Take care my friend and I will still use the PC at work just like a photo album as a reminder of all the fun you once provided.
Sincerely,
Applelicious
It’s a bit corny, but it’s my divorce letter.
bout time!!!
Kristin,
Ha-Ha…I am changing my ways.
Once you go Mac, you won’t go back. it’s not good bye, it’s hello and welcome to a Brave New World of creativity, flexibility and a lot more fun!
I keep hearing that same sentiment. :)
Sadly it is a bit too late to have a virus – free Mac :) There are already some trojans targeting specifically Mac. But personally, I think tablets are the future for information consumption.
I have thrown out PC 3 or 4 years ago. They are useful for gaming only, and laptop is good enough in most of other cases.
I have Android smartphone, Kindle, but I am unsure if I need Ipad at this time. I’ll wait till next one is released.
Giedrius,
I agree that desktop are for gaming and high-end graphics and CAD.
I think apple is very bice product. They always inventing.
I parted with my home pc long time ago, and although my laptop is my new sweetheart I’m constantly thinking of buying a tablet: ipad or samsung galaxy.
So.. I understand if you went to buy a imac or something but an ipad to replace your pc?? Think u should concider some options. Backup possibilities, Disk drive size, Adobe Flash, and additional hardware printer scanner USB sticks whatever u going to use.
So maybe u should hold on to your pc for just a while ;)
I made the switch to Mac at home about 2 years ago. I still use PCs at work, and they just seem to cause infinite frustration. I’m not totally sold on the iPad though…Not yet anyway. It seems like anything that I would use an iPad for is already covered by my smartphone and my laptop.
