Do you have some Windows-suffering friends and/or family? It’s about time the madness ended. Help stamp out PC Stockholm Syndrome once and for all.
“It’s About Time” to learn the Switch to Mac, from “It’s About Time” Products, is the first and only completely interactive learning tool that guides users through a typical day in Windows (idealized, without the crashes, security issues, virus scanning, etc.); then, teaches the equivalent on your Mac. So in about an hour, Windows to Mac switchers can become familiar with the basics of using their new Macs.
As users progress through the learning tool, the onscreen instructor shows them the steps they went through to complete a task in Windows; then, teaches how the same task is performed on a Mac. The best part is, right after the instructor walks the user through a lesson, they can try it themselves and receive immediate feedback.
