Do you use Windows or Mac? I wanna see if most users on here use Windows or Mac. I personally use Windows 10.

Had loads of bad experiences with Windows and no bad experiences with a Mac. It can even be quite cheap if you get a Mac Mini and use non Mac peripherals. And it all integrates seamlessly with my iPad. My only regret is that I can't play my WWI flying sim game on my Mac.

I've never used a Mac before. But my phone right now is a iPhone. And have a iPod Nano and had a iPod Touch before.

I have an HP laptop with Windows currently, but I own an iPhone and an iPod Touch, so I have some Apple products too. I've used Mac OS at school in one class and I really liked it. It was very user-friendly and great with Photoshop and other art programs. I think both are good, I just can't afford a MacBook currently.

So does that mean if someone calls Apple Support for problems with their Mac. You would be one of the people that would answer the phone?

15 years ago, that would have been a possibility. At the time, Apple had call centers in Austin, TX, Sacramento, CA, Montreal, Quebec, and Bawlmer (Baltimore), MD. I left in 2005, due to burnout. That was long before my diagnosis. Of course, I caught hell from mom, as well as the rest of the family for being a fat, lazy-assed no good motherf!cker for being let go, due to burnout. Even though I'm on SSDI, the family still considers me to be a fat, lazy-assed no good motherf!cker, no matter what I can or can't do.

Your family sounds like that don't really care for you that much.

I was always running up against the PA Dutch Work Ethic: work hard, keep working that way until you drop dead, then get back up and start working again. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Throughout my entire working career, I worked at least 3 jobs at a time, just so I could pay the bills I ran up. The only job I really enjoyed was the church choir, even though it only paid $25.00 for a 2 hour service. I can't even do that anymore, since most churches replaced their choirs and organs with rock bands and praise music. It's a trend In church music I despise, as a musicologist, and a classically trained musician. Besides, if a church still has an organist/choir director, they're lucky to even be paid nowadays.
