Clearly if you are a Mac lover, the next thing to get is the iPhone. Well folks, mission accomplished. While at first I didn’t have much of a preference between getting an iPhone or a Blackberry, that soon changed after I had the chance to play with an iPhone in the Apple store not too long ago. It’s almost as if you don’t even need a computer. You can have it all in your pocket.

I’m now entering day 3 of my iPhone ownership and let me tell you just how cool it is. It’s VERY cool. You’re probably reading this and thinking “duh, this isn’t anything new” or “I’ve had my iPhone for years now.” If you are one of those people, you probably went through this exact same excitement when you first heard about or got your hands on one of these Apple gadgets too, right? That’s what I thought.

And don’t forget the crazy amount of accoutrements that line the walls of the Apple store. There really is an iPhone accessory for every personality type! I will spare you any more details on my newfound iPhone obsession but will leave you with this… Thank you, Apple. Thank you.

I must admit that I haven’t always been a huge fan of Apples. In fact, I am a PC gal. Yep, it’s true. For give or take 15 years, all I have known is the PC and Windows (which despite all the new versions really and truly stays the same… boring). So when my ThinkPad went nuts and started to take 30 minutes just to open Internet Explorer, I realized it was time to move on… And then I was hooked on Apples. Mac that is.

Yep, I’m pretty much obsessed with my cute little MacBook. PCs simply don’t compare. See I learned more about Macs in college when I studied in the Ernie Pyle School of Journalism. The photo and video editing features pretty much ruled my sophomore and junior years. But besides those aspects, it’s just so fun!

By now we’ve all heard about the ridiculous amount of applications available through Mac, right? Well let me be the first to tell you that they are in fact, amazing. Not only do they entertain to the umpteenth degree, but they also are quite useful. Let’s say for instance I need to look up a movie time. Piece of cake – they have an app for that. Or let’s say I want to see how many calories I burned in my workout. Done. How about a word of the day? Health tip of the day? Easy recipes? Style tips? Online shopping? Done and done. I’m telling you, this adorable silver machine sitting on my lap right this second might be the very best thing I’ve ever owned.

You know what they say: an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, I’m pretty sure this Apple is probably what that saying is all about. Move over PC. I’ve turned Mac and there’s no going back. I’m an Apple gal now.
