| Apple people, need some feedback Wandered into the Apple store yesterday at the Mall and fell in love with it. It seems so easy and so full of everything. I signed up for a free class next Sat to learn about it. If you have one I would really like your feedback in owning one. My PC has been put out to pasture and I need a new one, so I thought this would be good for me. What do you think of yours, is it easy to learn and use? Thanks in advance, |

| We own a couple of MACS. My husband is obsessed. I do like it better than our PC. A class will be very beneficial. I probably should take one as well. I only do the basics but I know it has tons of potential. Great computers! |

The store person was so helpful and sat with me while we played on one. I say played because I had no idea what the heck I was doing! They also, for $100.00 a year, will give you unlimited 1hr private lessons on your new Mac and program it for you. That's just what I need since I'm computer Illiteriate. Is that a word? | |

| I bought one for my Dad 6 months ago and he LOVES it! He is not a techie, nor I, but the online tutorials are great and it's so user friendly. I purchased a PC 1 yr ago and I have been kicking myself since I met the Mac. I say go for it~

| My daughter chose the Mac for her college laptop two years ago. She has loved everything about it. I have to admit, when she comes home I am a bit jealous at all the things it can do. The only problem we recently ran in to was filling out some forms. I think her mac had trouble with some Adobe functions. But, that is the only thing we have ever found yet to be any problem.

| I was converted in December 2008 when I experienced my first PC crash and burn. After a tearful trip to Best Buy, where an Apple representative comforted me, I discovered the joys of the Mac world. I bought the Mac desktop for my home office, but I'm still chained to Bill Gates and Windows on my notebook until I can justify replacing it. Sometimes I miss certain features in Outlook mail, but the transition to the new operating system/programs was easy and wonderful. Macs rock! |

| Bought myself a MacBook Pro a month ago and will NEVER go back to a PC. Everything is sooo much faster, easier and better. No virus programs, no need to clear cookies every week, no need to re fragment your disc, it's amazing and can do SO much that I haven't even done yet. I'm basically all Apple products now. I've got my amazing iPhone, my iPod and now my Macbook Pro. They make great products! I must add... such fast service! I went into the Apple store on New Year's Eve to pick up my laptop. I was in and out of there with a new computer within 15 minutes.

| Those were my thoughts as well. I'm not computer literate by any means and need all the help I can get. The Apple just looked awsome to use. Also, what's nice about a lap top is I can use it in the family room while I watch TV and get on YT at night. LOL My PC was in the bedroom! |

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | Laughing at Twalla. Carol I just got hubby the mini mac for xmas. Tired of the whole virus and issues with windows. He loves it. It is not a huge learning curve from what I can tell. I am thinking that when my laptop goes to the electronic heaven I am going to get that mac. It will be a while because my Sony Vaio is only 2 1/2 years old.

Since I have no other high tech assessories, can barely stand a cell phone, I'm good to go as long as my camera can upload onto the computer. This is going to be my birthday present to me! Last time I bought myself a birthday present it was Buddy | |
