� social circle balance beam | Main | Second Take: Apples Music Store �
April 30, 2003
Macs
The more I see of Mac OS X and Apple hardware, the more I find myself wanting one. I switched from Windows to a Unix-type operating system back in '95. Lately I've been running linux but I'm constantly reminded of its shortcomings ranging from manual loading of hardware drivers to unpolished applications.
I keep seeing the polished approach apple takes to hardware and software and can't help but want one even though they are a little pricey. I didn't switch to Linux because it was free, I switched to it because it was stable but now I want some bells and whistles too.
The Apple Music Store is interesting as well because over the past couple of days, I've noticed that people who have tried it out say it's really neat. However, I don't know if people realize it but buying digital music online has been around from a couple of outlets for a couple years. Why isn't there much animosity towards Apple's Music store like there is towards record labels trying to sell the same songs for nearly the same amount? Is it because it's not from the "Enemy" or group who has always seemed to take the first strike?
