Windows to Apple

            After 10 years of using a Windows PC, I never thought it would change, was already familiar with the interface of the system, knew all the commands, hotkeys and tricks to ease my performance while using the computer. I've used the Apple operating system for devices like the iPod and iPad, because I thought that the famous iOS (the Apple operating system) were good only in small devices.
After moving to Macomb and leave my old computer in Brazil, I decided to switch to Apple computers, which promised better performance and some facilities. The first attempt was a failure, it was all different, simple commands like changing your Desktop, returning web pages, lock your computer and others are completely different. I had many difficulties to get the hang of, but I read tutorials, watched some videos on the Internet and finally got adapting to the new system.

Today, after more than three months using MAC (the Apple operating system for computers), I could adapt. And yes, the Apple operating system run more cleaner, bug-free, without lockdown or constant error system than the Windows software. However, the amount of programs translated into the language of MAC is still much smaller, some programs I use are not compatible with the new operating system, but Apple computers there is a tool called Bootcamp which allows Apple users to install on the same computer a small partition with Windows, so I can continue using the excellent features of MAC and when I need to run a program in windows is just restart my machine and log on Windows, it will be the same hardware with different software.
