Converting the family
The Young Fogey has two links related to computer issues. Besides the outward reference to a well known computer company in the first, Those mean-spirited Apple ads, what is implied in the second, What to do when your computer bogs down, does a much better job of conveying that company’s sales mantra – It just works.
I converted the family a few weeks ago. The kids and I are enjoying – and I do mean enjoying – a Mac mini. My wife is outfitted with a 20” iMac which allows her to multitask, enjoy, and manage the rest of us without constant crashing and burning.
Set-up was a breeze, and the computers did indeed work right out-of-the-box.
I was spending so much time in computer maintenance that it was affecting other things, and the constant problems frustrated my wife and kids. Now I have more quality blogging time 
My wife dabbled in Macs many years ago. I had one experience, in seminary, in the language lab, with an Apple IIe – and it worked.
Anyway, I’m still on a PC, now with dual flat screen monitors, and a newly outfitted nVIDIA GeForce 7300 GS video card. My Dell with a 3GHz processor, the new video card, and 512 of RAM will serve for a while I think (excepting the fan which sounds like a Russian tractor). I’m still hoping to see a MacBook Pro under the Christmas tree. Anyone want to be a Christmas angel? If you’re looking to convert do so – on faith.
Oh, and if you’re interested, take a look at my first work computer – the Osborne I. It was a great computer and got me hooked on spreadsheets. Mmmm data analysis…
