Looks like Mac won another battle over Windows. After a three-month period in which he completely abandoned the PC and its Windows to try out Mac, longtime expert Scot Finnie made his choice: definitely Mac!

The saga began in November last year, after a prolonged period of tests in Vista's beta cycle, when the expert couldn't help but wonder weather people will find Vista the best choice for an operating system. No answer came to mind, so he decided to take a bold step and completely stop using Windows for three whole months, choosing for both his work and home computer Apple's Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro, with Mac OS X.

The three months came to an end and his mind is made up: no more Windows. "The value and advantage of the Mac and OS X are difficult to miss", says the Windows expert. He said he came to realize what Mac users meant when saying "It just works". It means you spend less time on working on your computer and more on your work.

It's important to mention that Scot Finnie has expressed earlier this year this thoughts on Vista, after thorough testing. "Trouble with Vista" was his choice of words. He says he doesn't even hate it, as he did with ME. He feels Vista brings nothing truly new and that none of its features could make one really want to get Vista, though he admits that much work was invested in bringing out the latest Windows OS.

What's to be learned from Scot Finnie's experience? Well, perhaps nothing new. All computer users who experienced both Windows and Mac know: we use Windows because we have to, even though Mac is better. Windows Vista will still be a success, many PC users will choose it over XP (though XP is probably better). Bottom line, choose Macs, and if you have to stick with Windows, XP is the way to go.
