Apples

I recently bought a Macbook - Apple's new range of laptops. I've never used Mac's before to any extent, but its had a transformative effect on my relationship to computer interfaces. The Mac interface is such a delight to use that going back to PCs is a bit like strolling around a municipal council office in Dudley on a wet Wednesday (pardon non-uk people who don't get the reference), after you've spent a weekend at an hotel designed by Rem Koolhass. There's no going back.

Did you see Koolhass' latest creation in Hyde Park?

Macs? Don't you just wear those in the rain? Especially if you are strolling around a municipal council office in Dudley that has a leaking roof?

When we had a more practical business and technical test of PCs and Macs in the late 80s for high-volume legal publishing as the Nigerian Supreme Court Cases in 40 volumes - Macs looked good for leaflets, newspapers and magazine, PCs came up trumps for quality, consistency and manageability.

I have not looked back since.
