To summarise, it works just fine, no swapping at all, quick as deer fuck, quiet as ninja.
If there is a web designer struggling to decide I do support the move, leave any PC the fuck out, get a life!!!!!

Hi Sid,
You are 100% Right. Mac's are great computers, especially for Web designers.

I have both Mac's and and a PC in my office. Windows 10 is pretty good compared to previous versions of Windows, but its nothing compared to Mac OS/X. You should buy a Mac and try it out for a few weeks before deciding.

The Apple Magic Mouse works as a 1-button mouse, a 2-button mouse, and as a trackpad. Furthermore, you can use all 3 functions simultaneously, and customize how it works too.

True. My PC is an Alienware Area 51. It's pretty quiet, but my Mac's are even quieter.

All of the Macs, and most modern properly built PC's, are all pretty quiet these days. The SSD Hard drives have no motors so they make no sound at all. The fans can run slowly when the machine isn't too hot, keeping noise down too.

Do this: Go into System Preferences / Trackpad and do this:
Under "Point and Click":
- Disable "Look up and Data Detectors"
- Enable Secondary Click
- Enable "Tap to click"
Under "Scroll and Zoom":
- Disable "Scroll Direction: Natural".
- Enable everything else.
The last item, "Disable "Scroll Direction: Natural", will make a big difference in how you use the trackpad. I didn't like it either until I did this, and then it finally felt natural to me.

That's too bad dude. I used to be a die-hard PC guy until I switched to Mac. If you want some help, send me a PM and I'd be glad to give you some pointers.

Same here. The Pro's are just too big and too expensive. The Macbook Air is PERFECT for me and priced just-right.
