@arthan MacIntosh lady here.

iMac all the way! and would never go back to PC personally….

However have to use crappy pc’s @ work They are consistently crashing and are unstable at the best of times they drive me insane!

I use to have a pc, till it crashed once too often and the processing time for my graphic work… arghhhh…. don’t even go there! So I changed back to mac… my first time using a mac was @ my school, when I was 15… An Apple 2e they were huge! I wrote my first simple program on it during my lunch breaks, to get away from the bullies that had made my life hell… a teacher smuggled me into the computer lab one lunch time to give me a rest from the bullies, and I feel in love with the awesome machine one of the other picked on geeks showed me how to work. They said that I was a natural… actually it was the photographic memory of show me once and I’ll repeat it perfectly back to you , (though we didn’t know it at the time…) that got me the full time pass for every lunch break I had remaining in that school, to the computer lab…. My first program was a re-birthing fractal…. in the lovely glowing green ahhh the good ole days….

When I finally saved enough for an imac desktop 5 years ago, (and it’s still going strong ) It felt like the best investment I’ve ever done… the funniest thing – my husband a PC user has brought 2 computers and about to buy his 3rd in the 5 years I’ve had my imac…. hmmmmmm…. mine might of been more expensive… mine you, I ‘suped’ mine up big time LOL… however, he’s ended up spending more money in less time… lol…. ironic really

and just remember… Bill Gates brought into Mac shares, stole alot of the Windows 7 OS just so they can finally catch up with the rest of the mac users ease of use

Lets not forget that Pc’s are MUCH cheaper than Macs, Myself I am PC , and I have not had any Problems with them.
There is no low cost Mac out there, while Pc’s are afordable

We have 3 PCs and 2 Macs so far.

I’m a PC user at home and at work, but sporadically I have to use a Mac at work.

You Apple fans probably have an Ipod, Iphone, Ipad and other Ithings, isn’t it?

@tracycruze might wanna be careful, could be a scam, DUN DUN DUN!

@arthan You don’t think I am taking advantage of his disability? I mean, I wouldn’t be the one using it. I have my computer, but there are programs that will give free iPads for autistic kids. I just didn’t know if I was exploiting my son’s illness… Okay I am beating around the bush. It’s the pride thing. Accepting something for free. But if he would benefit from it, I suppose that would be a good thing. It’s just that on twitter, I’ve seen parents who get free stuff for their autistic kids and you know what? They use the stuff themselves, they milk their kids disability for all its worth and that bothers me.

@tracycruze
No your not taking advantage of his disability, you probably have to sacrifice a lot to take care of Nicky, this place is obviously there to help families/people who otherwise would not be able to get stuff like that , nothing helps people through hard times better than FUN and Ipods/ipads are fun.

Arthan doesn’t think your taking advantage , he just meant that if you can, go for it, anything you can do that can help ,do it.
