war on windows

last time we spoke we talked about the computers that i have owned, Its odd to say that my next machine was another windows machine I had nothing but problems with windows 98se i bought another windows mostly as I was unaware of anything else. So an other windows machine was bought. It was a windows XP machine with a AMD 1.8 GHZ processor Rather confusingly called a 2800 (which would suggest it was a 2.8ghz processor) a 512mb ram stick and 120gb HDD. It was all fast and a bit good XP was new it had a powerful graphics card, but it just lacked it always seem to lack using computers well windows anyway.

So I bought a iBook to try Mac OS X. I used a iMac (like the G4 above) in collage and kinda liked it. It seemed well designed i looked good to use. Mac OS X was easy, intuitive it was elegant (to coin star wars) and i like the design ethic of the above Apple products. My ibook shipped in due course and arrived somehow using the ibook for everyday work just made it simpler. With PC and all the windows machines was Spyware and Virus i spent a lot of time tidying up after all the crap the net generated that i did hardly andy decent work between these seasons . So suddenly i had time to work. So a year latter i got a iMac to use illustrator and photoshop, nearly all my work is one on my (now) Macbook and iMac or in Ubuntu on my PC (even though i have a computer with vista on it)
