It was a very long day yesterday. <\/p>\n

But I got to do something that I really enjoy doing.<\/p>\n

I had the pleasure of making a brand new iMac dance!<\/p>\n

I rarely get to unbox a brand new machine and set it up. Yesterday was a real treat for me. Brand new machine, brand new Time Capsule, brand new everything. <\/p>\n

And I got to transfer all the data from the old Windows machine to the shiny new Mac. At one point I had three memory sticks plugged into the back of the iMac and I was copying files from all the sticks to various directories on the Mac without really thinking about it.<\/p>\n

The Mac never broke a sweat. But the client was surprised that I’d do such a thing and not worry about losing data. Then I dragged all the photos from the old windows photo directory into iPhoto. A little screen opened up showing the photos as they were being imported and the client was blown away.<\/p>\n

Images flashing by, files being copied everywhere, configuring printers, and the Time Capsule, & never a hiccup.<\/p>\n

It’s one of the reasons I’m a big fan of Mac. It took 2 hours to get the files off the Windows machine.<\/p>\n

I wasn’t picking & choosing, I was grabbing the data from the users directory to the memory sticks in chunks. I got choosy when I was putting that data on the Mac.<\/p>\n

The Mac sucked in all the data from the memory sticks in a little under an hour.<\/p>\n

Very cool and a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

I’m wiped out today though. Between sinus issues, the energy expenditure in concentration, and a very long day… All I want to do is sleep. I’ve got other things to do, I can’t sleep right now. <\/p>\n

Maybe a short nap later this afternoon \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
