Ever since I got my PowerBook, I’ve been a bit of a Mac-evangelist. And my parents’ old Dell desktop running Windows ’98 was just not cutting it anymore. So last night, after a glorious performance of Handel’s Messiah, we went to the Apple Store in Oregon (no sales tax!) and my parents bought a MacBook. We worked a bit on it tonight – it’s their first Apple, first laptop….it took some convincing to get them to switch over to Mac, but I think that as soon as they get used to it, they’ll love it. So, I’ll be Coach Mac for the next few days, explaining all the wonderful joys of macLife to them.
