I had to buy a Macbook pro for an iOS development class I'm taking and to be honest I don't like using it. It's always closed and put away on the far corner of my desk until I need it for school work and once work is done I put it away again.
Im always on my windows laptop, so much easier to use and I get my work done faster on Windows.

I WANTED to love the Mac because I like my ipad and iphone and thought it would be so cool to have everything synced up and that it would be some superior experience to what I knew and that I'd be on it all the time but I really dont like it.

The shortcuts are easier on Win, on Mac you need to hit 3 keys at the same time to do something you can do easily on Windows. The other day I wrote out a whole page and when I hit fn + delete it did a back page and deleted everything I wrote, very frustrating. And why do I need 3 keys to do a screen shot, or to get to the bottom of the page or and of a line?
Right now as we speak Im trying to drag a few pictures into a folder and it wont let me. If this were Windows it would be done.

Im looking forward to when my project is over so I can either put this macbook away or sell it on Ebay and never use one again.
Plus all this money and no touch screen?

I dont care about brand names or whatever, im looking at what tool gets my work done faster and what is more enjoyable to use.
