Windows or Mac

Well a new version of windows is rolling out, Windows 7. To make my joy complete Apple has released a new “I’m a mac/I’m a PC” Ad. I recently made the upgrade to Snow Leopard on my Mac Mini and I have to say it was painless! It actually freed up about 10 gigs of hard drive space and sped up my aging Mac Mini to the point that I really think I can go another year without an upgrade! For the first time I have owned the same computer system for longer than 2 years without a major hardware upgrade… Pretty cool! and its faster now than when I first bought it thanks to the minor purchase of 29$ for the upgrade to Snow Leopard.
Windows 7 on the other hand is not so gentle… 219.99 for the ultimate version of Windows 7 as an upgrade and 319.99 for the full version! I am starting to wonder where the benefit of this operating system will start to show up… It’s obvious that Microsoft has found the way to continue to leach money out of their devoted following with the ridiculous pricing scheme. It is amazing to me how many people continue to be loyal to Microsoft completely oblivious to the peace of mind that they could have by buying a Mac.
They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results… well here we go again!
