Only if you were using a windows computer before. To me, Windows computers would take a bit to get used to.

Well schools are generally known for having the cheapest, oldest computers around. Nothing to do with using windows. My college had dreadfully slow awful computers and my PC at home was like a super computer in comparison. We also had iMacs in our multi-media lab. They were forever crashing.

Well I think they are about 5 years old so not that far behind. But still I do notice a fundamental difference in speed between the two. Mac is definately faster!!

Our school Internet is disgracefully slow! My Iphone is faster!!

Well there are tests on the internet if you want to compare how "fast" your computer is compared to mine. Or at least there are internet speed tests.
