haha OMG I totally do that too!! cheer when the mac adds come on. and I'm always defending my mac against pc people lol!!! I totally agree with everything you just said!!! yes!!! lol. my dad calls me a computer snob. I haven't quite figured out if he's kidding or not lol. maybe half and half? he claims that pc's "just work." and I laugh because it's been a long time since I've seen a pc "just work!" they always need updates and fixes and virus updates and ugh...gives me a headache just thinking about those days. I'm not clueless, I know there are viruses for the mac, but they're so few and far between!! it's so nice to not have to worry!! and yes, the mac has a few lil quirks too, mostly where voiceover and safari are concerned, and I really really wish it would play nicer with flash and firefox, but I'm sure those things will come in time. I'm sticking with this little macbook of mine!!! lol. peace and positivity Jessi follow me on twitter www.twitter.com/canadian)_diva On 25-May-09, at 12:36 PM, Jenny Kennedy (Howard) wrote:
