I switched from PC to Mac five (nearly six) years ago, and I have never looked back or felt even the slightest twinge of regret. To be honest, I find the Mac interface to be so much more intuitive and user-friendly that I get incredibly annoyed whenever I have to use a PC for anything. (I never thought I'd be one of those Mac Evangelists, but it's actually hard not to be one.)
My HP printer works with my Mac without any problems. In fact, most Apple stores actually sell HP printers. (I got a free one, eve, when I bought my MacBook--long story.) I've never had a whisper of problem with viruses, no mechanical issues--none of the million and one headaches and hangups that seemed to plague every PC I got, no matter how high-end. I am considering a new MacBook Pro sometime in the future, but not because I'm having issues with my current model. I just want a slightly larger screen and upgraded features and the more durable aluminum housing.
I probably don't need to say any of this, because it's clear from your entry that you've zeroed in on some of the key virtues... but I just thought I'd set your mind at ease re: the printer issue and spread some of the Mac love. I hope it works as well for you as it has for me.
I'm in love. It's an adjustment, yes. But already without classes or Macs for Dummies or even looking at the little booklet I'm finding I'm picking it up just by experimenting and it is intuitive--and already sooooo much less annoying than PC have been for years Of course, its been years since I have bought a laptop, so it might be unfair to compare the latest Mac shiny with a PC of 8 years ago, but DEAR GOD.
And printer? Well, new copy/printer/scanner came with full rebate so... non issue as it turned out.
