That Apple thing has happened to me again
Well, following a fairly major disk crash on one of our desktop machines we've gone and got one of those new fangled iMacs. And not to get all Mac fanboy or anything but I do like it. I like it a lot. OSX is basically a Linux/Unix distribution the way it should always have been - solid operating system with a great user interface layer above it. And now the they've got over to Intel and left the 68000 series and PowerPC behind... well it feels like a real machine.
Last time I used and indeed wrote software for a Mac was back in System 6 and System 7 days before Mr Jobs came back and entered his golden touch period. Despite having used Windows and PCs for 95% of my working life, all the way back to Windows 2 - somehow it just feels like coming home. I just like it.
