Macintosh

In my work, I use use both Mac and PC platforms, but I tend to favor Mac. I have been a fan of Apple computers since the beginning. I guess that should not be a surprise, since Apples are still preferred by many people in the music and multimedia worlds. Because Apple develops both the hardware and system software in-house, they achieve a level of intergration and elegance that would be hard to match otherwise. Also, their expertise is in technology more than in marketing, so although they have made some mistakes along the way, they have consistently delivered powerful, easy-to-use computing platforms. As a developer, most of the software I have written are for the Macintosh platform. (For the future, I’m looking to port some of my software to Windows because Windows has some development tools that are not available on the Mac, and because targeting both platforms would allow me to reach more people, should I decide to make some of my software available commercially.)

Here are some key Apple technologies that I make frequent use of in my work:
