Haven't used Apple products since my Apple 2e.
They're great for engineers, CAD users, and programming. It just takes a little getting use to, then you should be fine. But, IBM based computers are much easier to work on if you do computer upgrades, repairs, and general computer problem diagnostics. For the average user, both work great. Apple is superior when it comes to tech applications and programming.I've been a windows user from the beginning,but after going through three mid range laptops in just over a year and having iphones that never fail I've decided to go to the dark side. Or the hipster side as it were.
Any advice from MacBook Pro users on making the switch a little less painful?

At this point of tech, I'd say that whether Apple of 'IBM compatible' means very little. Used to, but now apps are available for either and good apps for both. So unless a fanboy of one or the other which you go with doesn't ultimately matter.

Learning you can still install windows made it a little more palatable.
And finding out that you get a clean version of windows without all the bloatware made it very attractive.
Like I said though,the main reason I'm switching is to avoid all the problems I've been having with PCs.
That and the Retina display.
The devices with an imaged apple that is bitten into are the ones you search for.Any advice from MacBook Pro users on making the switch a little less painful?

You shouldn't have a problem once you get use to the minor differences.
The "Retina" displays are very good indeed. But "Retina" means nothing but IPS. IPS displays are now in every quality device.That and the Retina display.
Do you have Java installed?At this point of tech, I'd say that whether Apple of 'IBM compatible' means very little. Used to, but now apps are available for either and good apps for both. So unless a fanboy of one or the other which you go with doesn't ultimately matter.

Dunno what problems plague modern MS OS users, but I"m still on win 98se with no issues at all. So maybe not upgrading 'because they tell ya too' is part of it.

While the hardware is fine, the software isn´t. I read an article in the last weeks that someone installed Win10 on the latest MacBook and it just runs great. With an Apple OS you have limited choices regarding software.One of the things that got me to make the switch was the top ten lists.
Pretty much every single one had Apple on top.

I've been building, repairing, upgrading, and installing software on computers for 20 years now. I have solved computer problems for hundreds of people over the years, and still do it today. I have people mailing me computers to fix. I also fix many from my desk via "TeamViewer". Over the years, I've found that 99% of the problems people have with their computer is nothing more than operator error, downloading programs with junk attached, not having security settings properly set, and just not knowing anything about computers except how to turn them on and off.At this point of tech, I'd say that whether Apple of 'IBM compatible' means very little.

It's the reliability that i'm after.
I dont use my laptop for anything more than email,movies,slingbox and of course USMB.
Well, office no problem. But in your case I would consider a Chromebook or something, instead.While the hardware is fine, the software isn´t.

Like I said,I generally use my laptop as is right out of the box.
I dont need office or anything else for the most part.
It's movies and surfing the net and that's about it.
