since i have been around computers and technology, roughly 1991 when i started in the art room at deluxe check as a corel draw "artist", i have been exposed to tons of different os apps, from ibm's os2, through all of the windows versions, 3.1, 95\98, nt, 2k and xp. i only dabbled into the macintosh world even though they were around. i will finally officially be thrust into the apple world as the secondary support guy. i got a power mac g-4 this week and have spent some time learning my way around. so far i have added a secondary hard drive, installed osx (and a few other apps) connected to our mac server, changed background and screensaver schemes (the important stuff!) and created a .mac account. i think i can now be reached at: skipprice@mac.com, as well as my other work and personal accounts. i must say it has been fun to experiment and learn on the fly but i have a long way to go to be comfortable supporting them fully. i have also been referring alot to my "macintosh methodologies in theory and practice" book, a.k.a. "macs for dummies". look for more updates on this topic as time allows.
i don't know if having a mac will change the world but it is sort of fun.
