I am seriously comtemplating switching to a MAC. I have been using a PC for my whole life. I would like advice

Have any of you switched, and are you happy about it? How long did it take you to learn the transition? It seems I finally know my way around the pc, and it scares me to have to learn all over. But most days I want to take a sledgehammer to my pc , when it freezes up, etc. I'm wondering if I can transfer all the tags on my photoshop pics, as I have spent a great deal of time tagging them, and would hate to start over. Any opinions out there?I am seriously comtemplating switching to a MAC. I have been using a PC for my whole life. I would like advice
Switching PC operating systems will always take time to get accustumed to the ins and outs. The biggest problem you'll encounter with the MAC operating system is software or hardware compatability.(the programs or hardware you have now will not run on a MAC) and you'll have to purchase new software and hardware exclusively for the MAC os your using .(video cards, sound cards.printers scanners,camers,modems routers etc... This results in less freezing as software and hardware conflicts are the culprit.(thats the problem your having now) So its not just picture tags but everything you have:knowledge ,software and hardware, you'll be changing.Research your software and hardware BEFORE you change operating systems. You may not like what you find.I am seriously comtemplating switching to a MAC. I have been using a PC for my whole life. I would like advice
I made the switch and am glad I did. I just like OS X better. I have been a computer support tech for over 15 years now and am pretty good at just playing around and finding how things work so the switch was not hard for me. I can't say weather it will or will not be for you. As far as Photoshop, I don't know what tagging means but there is Photoshop for the MAC and you can just bring the files over and work on them, nothing should change. Hope this helps. Send me an email if ya want to know more.
When I first got my Mac, it was so easy to use, and it took me less than a day to figure it out. And if you get Photoshop for Mac, and transfer over all your files in their Photoshop format, then yes, your tags should still be there. I am extremely happy about the switch, and will probably never go back! Contrary to popular belief, Macs are great for gaming! (Aside from the low-end Mac Mini and MacBook) So long as you download Boot Camp for free, and install Windows (Which will run you $120-200) you can still have a PC to install games, Windows-only applications, etc!
they' ll charge u extra for all this crap and if u wanna use files between and PC and a mac it may be hard to do considering the different configurations
