Thread Name: tech: How Many Mudcatters using MACs?
Subject: RE: How Many Mudcatters using MACs?
well, I am convinced that Macs simply 'work' better, are more user friendly, graphics clever and generally a saner design...but I am going to get another PC this time. Why? Because I LOVE all the little 'extra' stuff that gets written for PC..wierd printing programs, file searchers, graphic converters, audio players...etc...For every program written for MAC, there seem to be 27 for the PC, and I can pick & choose. And the popular 'chat' programs..IRC, ICQ...etc...are always slower to be done for MAC, and have fewer features when they DO arrive!..( I have a friend who LOVES her MAC, and is constantly searching for the neat things I take for granted on my OLD PC with Win3.1!)

I bought Beta instead of VHS, SyQuest instead of ZIP drive, a lathe that has the only known 1 1/8X12tpi thread pattern in the universe, so I can't buy attachments for it..etc...all good products, but not easy to find parts or products for...and I will stick with PCs until I am convinced that I can get the bells & whistles I want...please MAC, prove me wrong..I'd LOVE to use your neat machine...make me LOTS of toys sor it, and I will!
