I was fortunate enough to be an Apple employee for the release of 2 products that were very special to me: the first iPad and AutoCAD for Mac.Įven if I migrated from Windows guy to Apple fanboy, I was always an AutoCAD junkie. I even worked for Apple Retail for a number of years as a Genius. Since that time, I became quite the “Apple Fanboy.” iPhones, iPads, Apple TVs. At the time, Mac OS X seemed more intuitive, more straight forward and had so many “little things” it just sort of won me over. I suddenly found myself carrying a 17” Sony Vaio to work in CAD and a 13” white Macbook to do everything else on. Then, at the end of 2007, I bought a white Macbook on clearance from a reseller store. I built PC’s, ran out to buy Vista when it was released, and used Windows Media Center to run my entire home entertainment system. The same way roads are not specific to one car brand, each user should be able to choose an operating system that they prefer (for one reason or another) to get their work done. Everyone has their bias and at the end of the day it comes down to personal preference.
