Risking life and limb with the likelihood of hauling in some nasty viruses, I gave BloomTime’s suggestion a try. But I don’t like to just believe it’s possible, I want to see it with my own eyes. I never turn down free food, and with no reprisals demanded if I’d fail, I didn’t have anything to lose!
If I would find a way to make it work, he would buy me lunch for a whole week.
I suggested that I write an article about my experiences, and our editor-in-chief told me it would be a very short one: “It doesn’t work.” But I don’t like to just be told that things won’t work, so I took on the challenge. So why not try and figure out if it’s possible to get iMessage up and running on my laptop? I can of course follow and contribute on my iPhone, but being able to do that on a computer -like my colleagues on their Macs- would be much more convenient. However, much of our team’s conversations are held via iMessage. Some people find that hard to understand, but I have no intention to switch.
I do admit that I have an iPhone too, but I do all my desk work on my good old Windows 10 Lenovo laptop. In our Brooklyn office, I am surrounded by iMacs, MacBooks and iPhones, with not that many Windows devices to compete with them.
Safe to say that there’s a lot of love for Apple within the Resource Magazine team.
