Becoming a Mac

I've found another great resource for Mac newbie's and users.  The author of "Macafarian Ramblings" shares his story:

Did You Grow up Mac?

Nope. I don't even remember what my first computer was.

What Was Your First Mac?

I first went Mac back in 2000, with the old colored iMacs. I haven’t gone back since.

What Are Some Of Your Thoughts On What Makes The Mac Unique?

The Mac combines simplicity and power with a slick design. The Mac's designmakes you want one.  I don't know about you, but the PC's bland, plastic-ness is a major turn off.
Apple's marketing and promotion department is genius. They have managed to create a borderline-obsessed community around a multi-billion dollar company. Whenever there's a Keynote announced, they can count on the community to built up huge amounts of tension and speculation. The media picks this up, and before we know it, everyone is talking about Apple's latest product.
Just look at the iPhone 3g S. People are lining the streets just to get their hands on one, and when it was announced, blogs, online news sites, and newspapers flocked to cover it.

Have I Ever Tried To Convert A PC User?

Of course! All my friends are using Macs now. In fact, I just turned over last two. They should be lining up to get their 13" MacBook Pros anytime now. It was easy to convince them, after a couple of demonstrations of OS X.
