Full screen mode for things like calendar and mail and swipes to move between them make it extremely productive. I recently got one of the new 13" MB Airs and it is really a pleasure to use. I highly recommend you consider a 13" laptop as well as the 15" one. It took a little while to re-train keyboard habits, but when I got back to work one of the first things I did was replace my desktop pc with a mac. Really looking forward to hearing from you all to see how you are getting on with this, what's everyone using for GTD on a Mac, what recommendations, feedback & advice you have for me.ġ) I switched 5 years ago when I ruptured my Achilles tendon and was basically stuck in a chair with a new 15" Macbook on my lap. I'm pretty sure that I want to switch to the Mac but it's the whole 'Outlook' functionality that worries me.

I also drag & drop emails from my inbox into the relevant categorised tasks so that I can then view them by categories.ĭoes Microsoft Outlook on the Mac give me this exact same functionality? Can I categorise tasks in the same way and then drag and drop emails into tasks as I do on my pc? Can you set reminders for tasks? I find this system so useful and rely on it for my daily time management. I use the 'tasks' facility on Microsoft Outlook for my GTD system, categorising tasks in to the various GTD contexts that I use, etc etc. I believe you can also get the full Microsoft Office suite for the Mac, is that right? Is it exactly the same as using it on a pc? Have any of you made the switch from a pc laptop to a Mac and how have you find the conversion? Would you recommend it? How easy has it been to learn the Mac operating system? Any problems with it?Īs I mentioned I use Microsoft Office every day for both business and private use. I currently use 'Microsoft Outlook' for my GTD system on the pc and use Outlook tasks for everything, categorising tasks into the various GTD contexts that I use. I've always used used a pc and so this is a big decision for me but I reckon I should make the switch now as I do have to change my current laptop. I'm seriously thinking of changing my pc laptop to a new Apple MacBook Pro 15".
