Some time having passed, I thought that I should ‘come clean’ and clarify my position in the Mac vs PC debate. Back in August 2005 I blogged about the end of a short term relationship with a G5.

At that time I was well and truly convinced that I would never again be tempted by a Mac. However, back in October last year I took delivery of a shiny new MacBook.

My reasoning was that working with a number of clients who were Mac based, I needed to be able to verify the compatibility of any code I produced in Safari (The default Mac OS web browser). I had also for a long time been considering purchasing a laptop for use in client meetings and at training sessions. I weighed up the options and originally looked at purchasing a HP laptop and then bagging a 2nd hand Mac Mini off eBay for browser testing.

Balancing up the pro’s and con’s of each option it soon became clear that my investment would be much better made in a single machine and so the MacBook it was.

7 months later and I’m a total convert. I couldn’t love my MacBook more and I’m looking forward to replacing my Dell desktop which I use predominantly during the day with a higher spec Mac later this year.

There you go, I’m out of the closet.
