Eric and I have wanted to get a new computer for some time now. After doing a lot of research and talking to our knowledgeable technology consultant ;) we decided to save our pennies...a lot of pennies... and enter into the world of Apple and get an iMac.
After much anticipation we were able to make the big switch. After only having it for a few hours (although I have to admit we stopped by the store many of times to just play with it) it has been worth the wait. Reading some of the reviews and hearing others opinion the biggest obstacle is learning the differences between simple task e.g. copy and paste a picture (like the one above took me a few tries to get it).
But I am happy to learn and willing to learn a new system and so far am very happy with our choice. The boys think it is really cool too and there was a free app for a train game. They sat and watched it for a long time but with much to do I couldn't just sit and play the game the whole night. I have a feeling it will be a well used app :) Goodbye old PC, I can't say that I will miss you! :)
Congratulations! As you are learning I would recommend keeping a "journal" of how things are going. Nothing really formal, just a little notebook listing the things you figured out. If you get stumped, feel free to contact me via email, kinect, phone, whatever!
