And you wonder why I wanted a MAC?

The start to my day isn’t the what I wanted.  I came into turn on my Dell desktop with XP professional no doubt and it locks up in the loading window’s phase.  You wonder why I wanted a MAC?    To each his own right?  A friend of mine says after the research she has done she never get a MAC, I asked her about it then she mentioned about having to make changes to “graphics” and that others in a scrapbooking community complain about not being able to open some kits.  I don’t have an issue with my Macbook.  I even have a copy of photoshop elements on it.  Once I tackle the blasted text tool then I will be scrapping on my laptop here or there.  But I can open jpegs, gifs, and pngs with no issues.  So I am unsure what others are having a hard time with.  I don’t even need winzip to open a zip file,  Mac can open it fine.

The only reason I was going to keep my desktop was the fact of Paint Shop Pro.  I am a seasoned user and also because of the mail program Incredimail because I make skins for them and have done some custom orders for a set with includes a screensaver.  But right now I have no tolerance with Window issues.

I am going to purchase the program needed to use windows on my mac in the near future and see how it works just for a few reasons.

1.  Paint Shop Pro

2.  Gaming…there are a few games I like to finally get to play like CSI Miami

I really think if Corel made a version of Paint Shop Pro that was MAC compatible, they would open up doors to a lot of Mac users…. and profits too!

So will I spend my day today troubleshooting windows?  I sure as hell hope not!
