Star Interview with a Mac Switcher, Part II
Linked by Eugenia Loli-Queru on Fri 31st Oct 2003 17:21 UTC
Original OSNews Interviews Some time ago we featured an interview with an... official Mac OS X switcher. A year later, we found another Apple switcher, James Dorn ("noviteo" for his friends) and we ask him a few details upon the switch. Especially with the recent price cuts on Apple hardware and the Mac OS X Panther release last week, being a switcher becomes "cool" all over again.

I have never really used a Mac except once when I was at UNI, they had a few G4s (I think that's what they were) and they were using the old MacOS 9 system. I only then dared to touch this type of system for a few minutes. For some reason I found it very uncomfy and I remember ms word crashing and a popup message box came up on the screen saying it has crashed and all of a sudden this robotic voice appeared reading the text in the message box. I almost cracked lauging because I hadn't seen such a thing before and it was like in the movies hehehe ;) and I tell my friend, hey hey look at this, it talks to you! ;)

Everything was soooo strange because I am used to Windows so much. I have never used OS X but we have some Apple centers in here and I may pay them a visit a few times to play with MAC OS X, just to feel the system and see how it is. After all the reviews I read about G5, I actually wished I had a G5 ;) hehe If I like MAC OS X, the next system may be it would be an Apple system ;)
