			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I confess that I&#8217;ve been a Maco-phobe for years, I thought it was funny to mock Mac-users, I used to disparage the Mac an then hurriedly insist that &#8220;one of my friends is a Mac user&#8221;.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been quoted as saying &#8220;Macs are computers for metrosexuals&#8221; or &#8220;Macs are for men who moisturise&#8221;.</p>
<p>But&#8230;. lately I&#8217;ve been compelled to furtively walk into Apple stores&#8230;. trying to look disinterested&#8230; frantically wondering if the sales assistant thinks I&#8217;m actually going to buy one&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-24"></span></p>
<p>I&#8217;m becoming Mac-curious.</p>
<p>One of my best friends is an avid Mac-user, he&#8217;s a proper full-on Mac Evangelist, constantly tempting me.. &#8220;You don&#8217;t know till you try it&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>But I was in denial. But now, I&#8217;m ready to come out.</p>
<p>What has caused this?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve just watched a &#8220;guide to the Mac Air&#8221; on the Apple website &#8211; It&#8217;s <a href="http://www.apple.com/uk/macbookair/guidedtour/index.html?size=medium">here</a>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve still got some real problems with Apple, as it happens. I&#8217;m still bemused that something so proprietary can maintain such a gloss of black-tee-shirted coolness&#8230; but that doesn&#8217;t matter&#8230; I want one.</p>
