How to convert a PC user to a Mac user – I’ve never used a Mac before and always been a PC lover… I think this might be the hardest task Apple have had to date.

Day 1

Where is the hash key? Don’t give me 6 key command combination’s to do simple tasks that should be a button on a keyboard… why is external access to internal systems called something completely random? I feel like I’m playing a game of Hide and Seek and the Mac is really good at the hiding part – I suck at seeking!!

I would also like to point out that my feelings for the Mac seem to be reciprocated as I have already managed to repel my Mac after less than 24 hours of owning it. The whole of the docking icons crashed (which apparently is a very rare event) so, given my current feelings about my shiny white nemesis, I feel this has been my biggest Mac achievement to date!

My lovely senior designer for Wren does keep assuring me this anger feeling will soon pass and will flourish into love….well they do say that strong hate is usually a precursor to love – maybe this will end up being the greatest romantic story of them all. Current signs are not encouraging mind… I confess I have my PC on as well for comfort surfing, bit like a child carrying around a blankie!

More to come tomorrow!
