First and formost, I an NOT a computer person. I just want the bloody thing to work, to work all the time without fails.

Until 2005, I was PC with Windows. I have used Windows 3.1 up to Windows XP Pro, over the years. It was a nightmare !! Lockups, reload operating system, the blue screen of death, now with Windows 7 I hear there is a black screen of death.

In 2005, I had it. Went to the Mac store in Albany, NY. They were most gracious and took all the time in the world to demo the Mac's.
They showed me all the features and how easy the transition was from PC to Mac. I bought a Mac G4 Power PC.

My plan was to slowly learn the Mac and when ready, I would make the switch over and use it on the web. I figured a week or so in leaning. I brought it home about 1pm and spent the afternoon using it and learning. About 7pm, I said WOW !!! this is so simple and went on the web with it and have never looked back. Transition was intuitive, everything works like you woudl think it should.....nothing like a PC and the Mumbo Jumbo.

Some will say your to limited in software with a Mac.....Ha Ha Baloney !!! I have Micro Soft Suite running with Word and others, Photoshop 7, and all so much more that I dont even use.

Since 2005, I have NEVER EVER had a lockup,
I have never had to re-load the operating system. I just turn it on and it works.

Look inside the computer, its built like a quality electronic product. No cables hanging all over, everything is cabled and retained neatly on the chassis. Want to add a printer, plug it in the USB port and your ready to print.

If your buying a computer, you owe it to yourself to go to a Apple Store and get a demo. You will never look back. I sound like a Apple Salesman.....I am not, Just a user who found a product that WORKS !

Finally, if you have a question on any Apple product www.apple.com and there is a terrific forum for each product. Answers to any question is as fast as you get answers here on the Power Wagon Forum.
