Mac vs Pc

I just got myself a new Macbook recently. A Macbook Pro to be exact. Looks cool doesn't it ? Its a 13-inch model dual core i5.

One of the first thing I noticed was how sleek it is. glass panel display instead of the usual lcd monitors on laptops which are prone to dead pixels. Had a couple of them on my IBM laptop... yeah really old one.

And then i happily logged in and got lost. was not used to the system at all. shortcuts that worked in windows are totally different in Mac.

instead of Ctrl or Alt keys I find myself using Command a lot more.

From a user perspective it is a lot more friendly compared to windows. the total setting up is a lot easier and intuitive.

installing programs or rather applications is just click and drag into the application folder.

the trackpad is a lot winder and more interesting to use with its multi touch scrolling and navigation.

But hey don't listen to me watch this video below to see a review of the Macbook Pro which introduces more of the cool features.
