Five reasons to use a Mac for Paranormal investigations.
Does Apple know of this vast untapped market?

I frequently receive emails asking what type of computer and software I use to search through the hours of audio/video footage following a paranormal investigation. So, I decided to write an article and let you know the answer is simple; I use a Mac. I don’t claim to be a Mac expert, but I’ll share several reasons I’ve completely severed my ties with the Windows world and become a loyal customer of Apple, Inc.

I particularly like his fifth reason:
Fifth, a lot of paranormal investigators perform EVP work. GarageBand, another included application, allows you to do almost anything you can dream up with your ghostly audio files.


Yep! With Garage Band you can massage those sounds of silence in any way imaginable to come up with any sound imaginable, or any sound imagined.

1. Last week, one of my colleagues had a Mac stolen from her office.
Wonder if the thief ia a paranormal researcher?

3. That's the problem with us skeptics
We tend to be PC users. Clearly ghosts prefer to communicate to us with Garage Band.

5. Most people tend to be PC users.
I don't know of a study indicating that skeptics use PCs at a higher rate than the general population.

Just saying...

:evilgrin:

6. Pfft! There's that negative skeptical energy again!
And exactly how many of your friends have recorded ghosts on their computers? None, I think. It's like Steve Jobs says. You've got to think outside of the bun, er, I mean different, or something!

4. And here I thought...
And here I thought Linux computers were best for paranormal investigations because they come with daemons!
