No it wasnt hard.. when you actually said what you wanted to know, I had no 
idea what you were asking for.


If it doesnt work for u then it doesnt work for you but dont come into a mac 
thread when u dont own a mac and say it cant do this.. it cant do that.. when 
it probably can. Just because you cant figure it out doesnt mean it cant be 
done.

For example, I have head people say that they wont switch because their server 
is a windows server and they wont be able to control in remotely. So to them it 
couldnt be done, if it was me i'd fire up CoRD and remotely login to control 
the windows server, which by the way I do since my main server unfortunately is 
a windows server.

Or some people will say i cant run such and such windows program on a mac.. You 
could use parallels or bootcamp in a pinch.


On the video.. you dont have to show me, I tried it as well and I know the 
results and its not the same, one is "a slow kid" trying to eat cake and the 
other is a fat kid ripping through a cake.


Now if you are curious about why I get more done, here is a simple everyday 
example.

Say i am building a web site, I do it all, the code the graphics the 
photography, everything. On my old windows pc I would have cfm server & mysql 
server running, yahoo, aim, dw and firefox running as well and that right there 
slowed the machine down quite a bit, even with lots o ram. So as I am working 
away and say I need a new button set, so I fire up ps and waiting about 1 
minute for it to start up, then make my button and save, then close ps and open 
up fireworks so that I can better optimize  the buttons file size for the web. 
Do that and close then open up an ftp client so I can transfer is since dw 
tends to fuck with images with builtin ftp. Then say I want to add a small 
flash movie, well now I gotta open that up and wait, blah blah and all the 
while I am waiting for computer because its fairly bogged down at this point 
and I have to continually open and close programs to get work done because 
there is no way I could have 10-15 of these high resource  programs open, 
windows has a hard time with that even if you arent using them. And I havent 
even mentioned trying to navigate through the open windows, which is a proglem 
with windows, hence the more "apple" like version they put into vista.


Now on my mac I just open all the programs up, since a mac doesnt use memory 
the same way as a pc I can have everything I want open and it doesnt kill my 
machine, so my work flow is much more graceful moving from app to app. 
Especially now that I have gotten into photography, there is no way my windows 
puter could have kept up and its nothing for a mac.

That alone probably saves me a couple hours a day.
Just read the blogs of switchers, its hard to explain, but your flow just opens 
up and its amazing. If its not for then its not for you.
