Last month I bought a new MacBook.

I am a PC. I have been using PC for the last 10 years. I have used Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and the Windows Vista. Although I have heard that Windows 7 is much better than its predecisors they were good enough for me. Except for the occasional blue-screen-of-death and virus infections I was pretty happy with it.

The age old laptop I was carrying around was like my father’s tractor: heavy, noisy, and some keys need a bit harder push. Last year when I threw my Nokia phone for an iPhone I was impressed with its built quality. It was a smooth transition and everything was as easy as using the touch screen. When the time came to change the age old laptop I wanted to test the Apple waters. I had two options : MacBook and MacBook Pros. The difference was Aluminum. Do I need it? No, I don’t.

I went for the white plastic MacBook.
