Our 5 year old Dell computer died last week and took along all of the pictures on my hard drive. I am planning on sending it in to a data recovery service that will charge $600 to try to see if they can recover any of the pictures.
Anyway, after being upset with Dell, I went to the Apple store and picked up a new 24″ iMac to see what all the fuss was about. The hardest part was figuring out where the on/off switch was on the Macs!
I was able to very easily upload new pictures from our camera – just plug it in. No Canon or other software to install. The uploads even seem faster.
Picasa, my old editing tool on the PC doesn’t work on the Mac, so I am now learning to use iPhoto.
I haven’t quite figured out how to save the image in a lower resolution so the file uploads to WordPress are quicker, but the cutover was pretty painless.
And look, no more wires cluttering up my desktop. I have a basketful of cables going in the trash!
