In at the buzzer!
Wow I almost missed today's blog post! Let me say Its been an interesting day for me technology wise. I know a couple of you know that I'm trying to go without a traditional pc and only use my iPad and smartphone for everything. This experiment took a turn for the worse this morning when I woke up and my Droid X was dead. After trying various methods to bring it back I finally called Verizon's customer no service line. To my surprise I didn't have to wait very long and was told that my phone was under warranty and they could send a certified pre owned phone replacement to me. Well this phone has been a dog since I got it with me having to head to the store every couple of months to get it worked on. So after 3 phone calls and a trip to the store I bullied my way into an early upgrade offer. I'm think iPhone 4 since it will play nice with my iPad and then they will have the same apps etc making comparability much more simple. This is a big step for me. Pre iPad I was a BIG pc advocate due to it being a more open platform, but after getting the iPad and using an item that "just works" I'm really changing my toon. What about you all? Mac or Pc?

I think it really comes down to "computing," or really code. For that a PC is irreplacable. But for the vast majority of users a Mac (and now iPhone/iPad) present a more user accesible and reliable device/platform.
