Rediscovering Macintosh

Tom Hespos, a fellow internet media guy in NY, just started rediscovering the Macintosh.

It’s fun to read Tom’s comments on how he bought a cheap Mac Mini for himself for Christmas, but he also paid for the Apple mouse and keyboard, and a bunch of other stuff, even though he kept from being upsold to the PowerMac G5 that was $3000 … I predict now that Tom will be back in there buying a PowerMac within a year.

Then reading how easy the Mac is to use, and how fun it is for him is a joy.

And then, to read his story about how easy GarageBand is to use is just priceless.

Yes, Tom. It just works™ is what I’ve been saying for a long time.
