Overcoming allergies

It's been a while since my last post. I must say, although a very busy period, it was a fun period.

Aside some very important personal events, I switched from a Windows PC to Mac. This was a big step in my search for wisdom. I had to neglect my first and foremost allergy: People who are religious about their products. Like the people of the Apple Community. I really dislike those people. As if there is nothing else in the world.
Apple people tend to believe that their Mac is secure, safe, the best product in the world. Even hinting that an Apple might be insecure, is a direct insult to them, and of course Steve Jobs, the god of Apple. That's why I really hesitated buying a Mac.

But I did it. Because I like the design but more important, I wanted it because of the ease of use for editing photographs and films.
Overcoming my allergy really felt as a relieve! I can let it go, ignore it.
It is like what happened a couple of years ago in my work, where I overcame another allergy to a certain person. I worked much better with him, respected his ideas more, communicated better and without a predetermined thought about everything about and from him. I just didn't know at that time it was an allergy.

Being able to stand above all these little annoyances, allergies, peace has returned. Just another step on the road.

Ah well ok I see but now that you have switched from one bad thing to the other you might as well help me out with testing RubyCocoa!

Yeah Ruby rulzzzz! Since you have allready succumbed to Mac, you might as well start to code in Ruby! Resistance is futile!
