. . an Apple Macbook. About 9 months since I wrote here about my crush on Macbook, I’ve finally done it. I must say I love it to bits. It’s this milk white 13.3 inch Macbook. It’s design is so unique that from any distance, as long as you sight this, you’ll know it’s a Macbook. In the constant battle between the Mac users and windows users, there is an one liner from the windows camp about Mac – “it’s not the OS that sucks, it’s the users”. That’s because every single Mac owner is truly a proud owner and he’s going to talk a lot about his Mac.

Mac certainly costs more than the regular windows machines. For the same configurations as my macbook, if it were windows I could have got it at about 60% of the price. But as they say, if you think Mac is expensive then Mac’s not for you. That’s because, it’s not just the cost of the individual components of the configuration that you pay for. It’s the wholesome product and the experience it gives you. There’s a beautiful harmony about macbook and the applications that it has. You get a feeling that someone’s made this notebook just for you. You really tend to think that they had ‘you’ in their mind when they made it.

The first thing that had me fall in love with macbook was its design. It may sound a bit exaggerating but I think it’s a work of art, this design of Macbook. Every little thing has been thought out. Everything that is there is because of a reason – the size of the trackpad, the design of the applications, the space for arm rest, the arrangement of sockets, even the thumb scoop, the look n feel, the logo – as I said there’s a harmony among all these things. There is a beautiful theme that’s so very consistent in all things Mac. Again, all these things may sound like exaggeration or ‘fanboyism’ – if you’ve not used a Mac.

The other thing Mac has managed for me is to revive this blog. Thanks the Macjournal application, posting an article to a blog is so so easy. Expect more posts from now on (how many times I’ve said this). Over the last few weeks and months, I’ve been reading some interesting books which have some great concepts to think about and have views on. Some of them can very ground breaking and thought provoking. Stay tuned.
