After watching a few tutorials and hitting up some co-workers for tips and tricks, I was easily on my way within a couple of days. The Mac has some great tutorials for people just like me-those making the switch from a PC. I also quickly learned that my fears of an enormous learning curve were unfounded. Not anymore! My speedy little MacBook is ready to roll before I’ve even grabbed my first cup of coffee. I knew it would have to go through the whole boot-up process and would take its sweet time doing it. With my PC, I’d have to turn it on about 5-10 minutes before I wanted to start working. The very first thing I noticed (and still appreciate) is that starting up a Mac is a breeze. Asking for a new MacBook was a humbling experience, and the Mac devotees I work with just smiled when they heard those words coming from a PC fan. However, when my old PC really started slowing down and developed a rather annoying green vertical line down the center of the screen, I decided it was time to take the plunge. I was always “too busy” and had too many projects on my plate… there wasn’t time to learn an entirely new computer AND get my work done! I was just quite comfortable with my PC, and I had myself convinced that the learning curve was going to be a pretty high mountain to climb. Since starting at Launch over 2 years ago, I’ve felt a “little” pressure to make the switch to a Mac. Working in a digital marketing agency, I am surrounded by Mac users-to say that the number of Macs outweighs the number of PCs in the office is an understatement.
