I am so glad that I discovered apple products at the right time in the history of computers. Right after they switched to Intel processors. My discovery of apple products seems perfectly orchestrated. One evening in 2005, I meet this guy listening to his ipod. He and I become good friends and I observed that he had a mac computer. I later see him use his computer and I impressed immensely that I actually go out and look into finding a hacked version of their operating system and installing it on my PC. Upon installing it, I was so happy, I felt cooler for the fact that I was using this modern operating system. It was a unique feeling like having bmw steering in a Toyota. Everything was easier, simpler and most importantly cooler to use in this operating system. I had injected new life into my computer. I had blessed it with apple’s operating system.
I like Macs because they are shown in movies. They look so much sleeker than plain old pc’s in cinema. I remember first awing the power book laptop in American pie when they were watching naked girls. Using a mac, made me feel like I am somehow part of the American pie guys using a mac. At least momentarily it did, until I realized I was still in my apartment with no blond girls to spy on with a webcam.
I felt so efficient myself when I used a mac. I felt the mac is going to make my life more organized and cool but that hasn’t happened yet. I wish my life was like the apple’s operating system so streamlined, organized and simple. I thought by using apple’s latest hot product the Iphone my life would be so organized and I would be on top of everything. In my naïve days I used to think whenever I was talking to a girl I would look up what to say to her on my Iphone and say it to her and impress her. My mind likes to drift away whenever I think of some new idea like that and bask in thought of how its going to alter my life and bring joy. At least apple helps me dream about such things.
Discovering apple has definitely brought me more joy, even though it is not all that I anticipated but overall it has been a very positive experience.
