Comparing 2 Powerbooks with 2 Thinkpads: "Powerbook vs. Thinkpad speed testing".

For the first week experiences: "First week of the switch".

Sunday: Evangelism...

25 July 2004


Mea Culpa.

Every time someone walks with an iPod attached to their ears, I notice.
Every time I see an Apple logo lit up in a movie or TV series, I mention it.
Every time someone starts talking about Windows problems, I pimp it.
Every time I see someone I know who hasn't yet seen my new Mac, I show it.

I am sick, I admit it. I have become my own worst nightmare: an evangelist.

I can't help it though, the Powerbooks combined with MacOSX are just so good! I am not happy that I've become an annoying evangelist, but at least I am evangelising a good product. My favourite reactions to my 'pimping' so far have been:
"Oh, it's a computer for people." matter-of-factly spoken by a colleague after showing the usability features of the Powerbook 17";
"Hey, it's actually a real computer!" after showing another colleague the UT2004 and XIII game demos.

Mea Culpa.
