Ok, so here at school I've been favoring the Mac machines we got over the Windows ones when i am just browsing the net or wasting time.
I like them ONLY because the interface is "newer" and "cooler" and they have 24 or 27 inch monitors that go alone with them. The machines are a year old so they are fast and smooth too!
Maybe i just like it because it's a change. When i go home everyday, i love my customized XP just as much though. But stock OS vs stock OS I think Mac is a more impressive first impression.
Of course, the 15" monitors all the XP computers are on don't help.
We have a lab also dedicated to testing out Vista. I tried it out, they have the Business edition loaded into them. I wasn't impressed. It felt like a bad clone of XP. Now, when i get Vista Ultimate on my 27" or 30" screen and new computer at home, when i finish in a few months, things will be different. Until then, Mac at school, MY XP at home.
Otherwise i hate Mac. Firefox looks like poop in it, Word sucks, Safari sucks. The features are cool though. If i have four windows open i can cick the side of the mouse, and then BAM all four windows shrink and i can click which one i want. Pretty neat little window animations too when i minimize and maximize.
XPXPXPXPXP i must keep saying....
