Dear PC, I’m Leaving You For A Mac

By • March 30, 2007 • Apple, Switching To A Mac • 3 Comments

I’ve been trying to think of reasons why I should finally switch from PC to a Mac, but I can only come up with one reason… $$$. That’s it, that’s the only think holding me back. I have too much invested in my PC’s and software, etc…

I’m tired of using PC’s, so I’m giving PC till the end of the year to convince me that I shouldn’t switch to a Macbook Pro. You can view the live countdown here at http://www.jimkukral.com/countdowntomac.html.

I started my computer life on Macs before the Internets doing graphic design, so I suppose it’s only appropriate that I make the switch back to them eventually. I only left because PC’s were easier to do “regular” business with. I think those days are long gone.

In fact, still have my Macintosh Powerbook 145 sitting on my shelf in my office collecting dust. It has a 40mb hard drive yo!

Business Around A Lifestyle

The world changed on 9/11 in so many different ways. Since that day, there has been a major shift happening in the way people think and live their lives. Sure, many people still chase the dollar as their ultimate goal. However, many more people have begun to realize that the world could, well, end tomorrow.

That's why people are choosing to pursue a business around a lifestyle, instead of a lifestyle controlled by their business. It makes sense, right? If the world was going to end tomorrow, would you still try to live your life in a way you never wanted to?

Take a look around you and you'll see that this shift to becoming a lifestyle entrepreneur is being adopted by more and more people every day. Some of those people are falling into it because they have been laid off from their jobs and are literally forced into it. Some of those people just figure out a way to make it happen because of the "end of the world" thinking mentioned above.

    It’s about time you came back to the “dark side”. I can feel a disturbance in the force, much like the sound of a PC locking up in mid-save!

    I highly recommend the switch to Mac. I love my 17″ Macbook pro. It never crashes. i never lose material. i can have 100+ pages open at once in firefox without a problem.

    The only small drawback is not being able to use a few programs specifically designed for pcs and windows but heh, it’s a very small price to pay.

    The only thing holding me back from a mac is my thrifty side that is telling me to squeeze a little more use out of my pc before I go mac…but I’ll be there soon.
