My first computing experience was at High School in 1982. While the math geeks were enthralled, I couldn't help noticing that, in order to get these machines to do anything cool, like a drawing, you had to do all sorts of programming on this green screen with the ugly type. So I decided computers were not for me. Years later I tried a Mac. . Now, 6 Macs later, my artistic experience is a Mac one... People talk about Mac Zealots, but the fact is that when you become a Mac user, you become an 'evangelist' by default. The only Mac detractors are people who don't use them. But do they feel fanatical, or even happy, about the personal computers they do use?
