My neighbor, a snowbird from Germany and I have had this

I like computers and I like working with them so it doesn't

bother me
knowing I have a computer..


My iMac has a 27" screen, an intel i7 processor, 16 gigabytes of

RAM, a
one terabyte hard drive and is "served" by an 8 terabyte Synology
server. Gee, I wonder what apps significant to me I can't run on

this
mac and if it is only available under a MS OS, under Windows 7

under
VMware?

For most users, the hardware platform no longer is relevant.



But you don't want to swap a hard drive.





I don't need to...Apple does it for me.

Well that's an inconvenience for you. You have to get out if your
jammies and in to your street clothes toi visit the apple store.
