How is Windows Vista?

FWIW, I'm a long time Mac user. I've always had to have a Windows machine in my office, but only to deal with files clients send me. My new Intel Macs run Windows either from a direct boot to Windows, or virtually, using Parallels software. ( about $80 ). Windows in a window, so to speak. Both scenarios work flawlessly. Windows XP runs as almost as fast in virtualization as it does solo. I actually cannot tell the difference. That is not an exaggeration. So, for the price of a Windows OS license, you can have the best of both worlds ( not that I've ever found anything even approaching 'good' with Windows ), if you buy a Mac. For another ~ $80 you can run both, simultaneously. My Windows machine was donated to charity yesterday. |
People say you can't have it both ways, but Michaelct proved them wrong :^). If I worked in the hard core business world instead of advertising and photography, I too would have been a Windows guy. At least now everyone has a choice, you can run Windows on a Mac and turn it over to Tiger when work is done and "play" on your own time. My son is a Windows kid. He loves my Mac and plays on it every chance he gets, but he is also a big time gamer and games written for Windows are numerous, compared to the few for Mac. Lately he has been wondering what might happen if he bought a Mac and set it up for Windows to play games. I think that would be a waste of time but it shows that people of all ages are at least considering a Mac, and for all kinds of reasons. A few years ago it looked like Mac might be down for the count. I was a big supporter, but thank goodness there are a few others on board now. |
