Switcher
Friday, February 11, 2005
I talked to my first Mac switcher last night. There may be some future in being the Mac person at work after all ;) She bought a laptop and said that she was just tired of dealing with the anti-virus, firewalls, and anti-spyware products that you have to run on Windows computers these days. I suspect you will be seeing more of these. There are a lot of folks out there who don't feel comfortable using computers. When you throw on all those extra programs, it's just an added headache. OS X is not the perfect operating system and certainly has its own set of issues. So far, security doesn't seem to be one of them.I am working on a set of Life Balance templates. I think there is room for a very basic set that does incorporate some of the stuff from Ratz' work. So I moved my existing stuff into the new template and will find out what areas I need to tweak. I actually went back to the memos/linked system for a bit. I really like it and I do think it's a good system. The problem is that I seem to have problems reviewing material when it's spread out like that. I have FindMemos and it does a great job of searching for common items. I just get tired of trying to figure out ways to make the search easier. And, anytime the discussion turns to LB, I miss it. So I've decided to add it back. I'm also still using WordSmith, instead of Mac NoteTaker. If I can convince myself that it will work fine for memos, I might remove PSMemo. It's still a work in progress.
