...easy (or hard) to master as a Mac. In fact, he insists, "there are a bunch of things on the PC that are absolutely superior." With the zealotry of a recent convert, he ticks off the holy trinity of Windows features (the task bar, the start menu, the two-button mouse) and slowly, almost against my will, I start to believe.
