Best of Both Worlds
Well, I got my new computer today.
If you've seen any of my previous thoughts about it, you shouldn't be surprised that yes, I got myself a Mac, and since today Apple has released a version of Boot Camp that easily supports Vista, I'm in the midst of trying that out as well.
I grew up with Apple computers, and my move to PCs and Windows was always a pragmatic choice driven by the jobs that I had at the time. But it was a decision made by my head and not my heart. But there are some things I'm fine with Windows, and Windows has progressed far over the years as well. I'm very comfortable with Visual Studio, VB, C#, ASP.NET, and SQL Server from a developer side. The range of applications is very vast.
I'm sure it'll be an interesting experience to get reacquainted with everything on the Macintosh side -- as well as having something solid on the PC side as well.
