I am a Macoholic

I became the proud owner of my very first mac sometime in the middle of 2002. Apple had just recently unveiled, what was then, the new imac with its breakthrough G4 processor and an amazingly breathtaking design. It had a swiveling flat screen panel attached to a majestic dome base. It was love at first sight. I don't know if it was the pristine white exterior, but everytime i looked at it, it just emmanated such radiance. And the inner workings of its anatomy was impressive as well. It was fast and effecient. The user interface was so friendly, it was as if we'd known each other our whole lives. I was clicking my way around it with such ease.

Needless to say, I was bursting with joy, and the people around me certainly knew. I would share with them my thoughts on how a mac is so much more reliable and ever more dependable than a windows-based PC. But the problem was, at least back then, I was the only person I knew who owned a mac. I could not find someone whom I could truly share my enthusiasm with. So I took it upon myself to become a staunch advocate of the mac here in the Philippines. Everytime I heard a friend or co-worker mention the words, "im thinking of buying a new PC," I would quickly interject and ask, "have you ever considered an imac?" When ever i was around, the phrase, "i want a new laptop," was always followed with, "oh but an ibook is so much more reliable." I was determined to spread the truth. It was my quest to shine the quintessential light in this dark PC age...

And now, in the year two thousand and five, thanks to the amazing ipod line and all the staunch mac advocates such as myself, apple has continued its exponential success. I now have friends with macs and even more friends who ask me where to find a reliable apple distributor. Suddenly, the world seems brighter.

So, to all you mac lovers out there, let us keep on fighting the good fight. Let us share with others the deep sense of joy that comes with owning an apple computer. It is our responsibility. And through it, we shall make this digital world a better place, one apple at a time.
