While working through the piles of work thrown at me during the last few months, in a moment of clarity I suddenly realised: ‘Oh shit, I still have an editorial about Mac thingies’.
Yes dear reader, sometimes you just don’t remember things you were ought to do. Especially when they’re not on top of your priorities list. Which is why I haven’t written a lot over here yet.

Due to piles of work, some obligations and other general busyness during the last few weeks, I wasn’t able to write my editorial. But I’m back now baby!

Macs have had a very unique look for quite a long time. Not only do they look pretty, but their design certainly sticks around in your memory. For one, I can remember quite well when I used a Mac for the first time, but not with Windows, or a PC for that matter…

For a long time, I wasn’t really interested in Macs. Especially during the nineties. When I was about 10 years old, I already knew Macs were some weird kind of PC, which can’t run Windows and it didn’t even have Pentium II! Everybody knew your PC had to have Pentium II! Never mind that I hadn’t got the slightest idea what a Pentium II exactly was, you knew it was somehow better than a normal Pentium, so you needed to have it, like now. Nobody was even aware of Macs as a real alternative to Windows PCs back then.
