There. I admitted it. I bought my first Mac. After years of working with Windows (both personally and professionally) I bought a Mac. My Windows friends will probably disown me, refuse to acknowledge my existence and probably cross the street when they see me coming.
Oh yeah, I purchased a 13″ Mac Air with a 256GB solid state drive and 4GB of RAM.
Why did I buy the Mac?
Ok, so a couple of reasons, but first a little background. I’m one of those individuals that thinks about large purchases for days/weeks/months before pulling the trigger and making the purchase. I had spent many hours thinking about obtaining a laptop to compliment my workstation at home. There is a key word in that sentence. “Compliment”. So, in other words I didn’t need a huge beefy machine of a laptop but rather something that would run a VM (for SQL Server) and do presentations, word processing, simple stuff really.
