Migrating to the Mac: Photo Booth

Posted by: brb In: Tech ()

iMac on LSD

Yup, I’ve just started moving my files to my iMac. Before that though, we had fun just playing around with Photo Booth, as you can see from the picture above taken with the built-in iSight camera. The Mac has a few quirks of its own and does things a little bit differently than a Windows PC; doing things right will need a quick browsing through the Mac Bible.

But the iMac itself is a thing of beauty, with clean, smooth lines and design that could only come from Apple. My son fell immediately in love with it. (He said, “私の宝物.” “This is my treasure.” — He’s fond of saying things like that, he most likely got it from his schoolmates.) It says a lot that he never said anything as nice about all the Windows PCs we ever had.
