I started my computer career with a commodore 64 then followed with Amiga 500, 500+, 600, 1200 and then to MS-DOS powered 286, 386, 486 and finally a Pentium 90Mhz was out with Windows 95… You probably guess the rest, 98, XP, (damn)Vista etc…

In December 2007 switched to a Macbook Intel machine, i did not seriously think about a PowerPC machine  because of compatibility issues but when i heard that i could install also windows on a mac and use the both systems together i bought it. I don’t want to keep it long but it seems that i would not change back to Windows unless a miracle happens…

Briefly what i hate in Mac OS:

MAC : In Finder, it lists directories and folders together in selected order alpabetical, by type etc., which drives you crazy when browsing a folder among thousand files, not like in Windows Explorer which is a big minus for mac. There are work arounds and silly excuses of mac users which i can’t accept as a reasonable explanation. On most blogs they say proudly, a mac user is used to create a folder by a leading space to keep it on top of all files. As if it is a good thing to perform some extra work to achieve something really simple.

MAC: Maximize window, that is also silly that you can not make a window full screen with maximize (zoom) button. You have some tools to achieve that in mac but nothing is as good as os default behaviour.

And what i like about Mac OS:

MAC: Perfect visual experience. Very powerful graphics accelerator even with onboard intel graphics chipset. Another example about its power, on a windows PC with the same configuration you can never fast forward a movie smoother than a Mac does.

MAC: BEAUTY. After working on a Mac, if you switch to windows you feel like after using XP going back to Windows 98. I really do not even want to check something on my windows machine eventhough i really need it.

You can say that they had a good make up on Vista, but Vista loses already with its performance, unnecessary explanations everywhere, strange security warnings, by trying to make it user friendly they made it for use of grannies, i admit that a person who has not seen a computer before would use it better than any other system!

Actually i was planning to write more but i can’t recall everything now, maybe i will post later about this issue, and keeping short is sometimes better…
