After two years of using ubuntu full time on my laptop, last week I purchased a 17″ macbook pro and could not be happier with my purchase. I intend to keep OS X Leopard on it. Here’s why: I’m getting ready to graduate from Wheaton College (Chicago) in December and simply do not have time to battle ubuntu for hardware support and stability anymore. Don’t get me wrong – I love linux and ubuntu and dislike Microsoft as much as the next linux user. It’s just that my time and nerves are limited. Therefore, I will unlikely be writing any more posts on this blog. My parents are still using ubuntu on their computer but I intend to have them purchase an iMac for their next computer (since I am the computer person in our family). So I guess this is goodbye for now to the ubuntu community. It was fun while it lasted. I learned a lot but it is time to move on.

Кстати, если закончаться фото Одри, то можешь в фотошопе старые фото накладывать на новый фон, так и разнообразие будет и ты работать продолжишь

I’ve been a Windows user for years and am just switching to Ubuntu – so far no real problems. I was really interested in your post because I hadn’t read of many people switching from Linux to a Mac.
You seem to have mastered Linux and from one of your earlier posts, you were quite happy with it a year ago:

You say you are now battling Ubuntu over hardware support and stability. I was under the impression that each release improves the experience a little solving driver issues and bugs. What did you think of Ubuntu 9.04?
Don’t you have more control with a Linux setup compared with a Mac? Isn’t there a wider choice of software available in Linux? I’d love it if you could give a fuller post detailing why you think its worth switching from Linux to a Mac.
