How do I love my Mac? Let me count the ways

I love you because when I capture a screen shot and retrieve it on my desktop, you smartly display it as a thumbnail without any extra clicks on my part.

I love you because if I want to capture a photo or something else on the screen, there is no extra click, so whatever is on the screen stays there for me to capture (unlike some other unnamed computer variety which made it impossible to capture said object, so I jumped over to my Mac).

I love you because when I upload photos, they go instantly into iPhoto with no extra steps and I don't have to open two or three programs just to view my photos. 

I love you because when I want to view my photos and click on a folder, just that folder displays and I don't accidently wander back into other parts of my desktop that have nothing to do with the photos in my folder (in other words, I can't just open that folder - everything else comes along with it).

I love you because there aren't a bazillion steps to edit my photos in iPhoto.

I love you because you go down a straight line to accomplish a task, rather than zig-zagging all over the room to come back to square one.

You make my computer life easier, simpler and I thank you for it.

(This post was inspired by my inability to capture a shot of something I wanted to write about here in the Rain, so I went over to my Macbook and instantly grabbed it. It just made me appreciate my Mac all over again :)

Hi Sharon,

I live in both worlds, I use my IPad when I'm out of the office and my old school laptop that has been supped up to be a work horse.

Adrian, I work both worlds as well, but when I am doing stuff with photos, my PC drives me crazy but my Mac makes it so easy!

Sharon, Your headline caught my attention and caused me to think about a few of the things I love about my Mac.  I love the simplicity of the IOS and the intergration with iCloud and the sync feature, drag and drop, auto resizing of emailing photos and my list goes on and on.  The most important thing I love is that my Mac is stable and I have yet to see a blue screen of death like I often saw on my previous PC.

Sam, oh so true. I am typing on a Macbook I have owned since December 2005. We are fighting the blue screen of death on a PC on Frank's desk that is vintage 2012. It makes the price of a Mac a no brainer. They just do not quit and crash.
