Ok, so I’ve been feeling the need to upgrade my proper computer (old acer laptop) since upgrading the OS to Win7 which has caused the cpu fan controller to go haywire.
In fairness it has had a hard life and could do with a bit of a speed upgrade too.
Since getting an iPad and having an iPhone in my pocket, the laptop is only really used for backups and photo/video editing, kindle book pilfering, music ripping and then the odd ‘work’ based things.
I’ve been looking at Macs – in particular the 27″ iMac non retina version – but I’m still not entirely convinced I could live without windows, I see you can run VMplayer in OS X, but will the USB ports recognise such oddities as serial converters etc.? I’d prefer not to have to put a fresh install of xp onto the laptop and keep it laying around.
Anyone else made the move the fruit based computing?
