Cat-waxing task of the day

[ksmith]

Giving the iMac's keyboard an alcohol scrub. I mean, I love my Macs, but the white keyboards are really, really an exercise in aesthetics over common sense.

Thanks for the Move2Mac info.

Thanks for the Adesso info. I just bought the ergo keyboard with touchpad.

Good ol' Torcon refund.

There's a veritable Mac orgy going on around here. I started trying to talk my sister into getting one - she was receptive.

Just curious--why did you make the switch?

I had been considering Macs for a year or so, mostly in order to get away from viruses, spyware, and such. Got the iBook in Feb 2004 because the old Gateway laptop was on its last legs. I was planning on holding off on a new desktop until the old Gateway collapsed into a smoking heap on my desk. Then I saw the new iMac G5s. Fell head over heels, and that was all she wrote.

Except for the occasional inability to play some film clips and view the odd webpage, I honestly don't see a lot of difference. Some of the keyboard differences required some adjustment, but I coped.

I think mostly I just wanted a change.
