When using a Mac I worked off of “internal” hard drives that sat in a USB dock. The biggest issue I ran into was hard drive related. Thankfully I have a co-worker on a PC who supplied them for me. Not sure if it’s a Mac vs PC font thing or what, but my font collection just wouldn’t install properly. One annoying thing I discovered was that I couldn’t install my fonts. In the past it would have been a nightmare but most apps, like the Adobe suite, allow you to download PC versions under the same monthly subscription so it wasn’t a big deal. Thankfully the transition from Mac to PC versions of software was very easy because of the subscription based model most apps use these days. There were the usual annoyances of switching computers, of course, like installing software/plugins.

Configuring my PC was a bit of a headache.

I had a bit of a panic attack and thought to myself:Īfter that scare thought, things smoothed out. This is a true story: I turned on my computer and I used it for about 3 minutes before this happened: Hopefully if you are switching soon, these notes will ease your transition pain! Setup Many of you wanted a follow up on my post about converting from Mac to PC.I’ve had my PC for about two weeks now, and I think the “transition” is nearly complete so I’m ready to share my thoughts.
