Re: PC vs. Mac
This sounds a lot like a trading company. Many require that you take at least two consecutive weeks in order to see if you've been doing something that you shouldn't be...Syntyr wrote: HEHEHE Here is one for you. About November basically most of the IT staff goes on vacation and doesn't come back until January. Why? because the internal and external auditors sweep through during December and they don't want the IT staff around while they poke and prod everything. If you are a full time employee who has more than 2 weeks of vacation and you are taking more than three vacation days in a month it is HIGHLY recommended that you take a whole 2 weeks. This is so that they can uncover any issues!

You're wrong.E2P989 wrote:Guess who MAC copied the mouse from? Windows.magicglock wrote:Some folks accept change better than others.

So a Mac is okay because it can act like a PC and it only costs three times as much to be able to get around to being a PC.
Hmmmmmm
I think I'll keep the PC for 1/3 the price and not have to go through the transformation from Mac to PC.
Bye again!

I use the Open Sourced LibreOffice. It'll do anything M$ can do, even better. It is highly customizable and is always free regardless of how much you add or upgrade.C-dub wrote:Certainly are of the potential war and absolutely do not want one. The pros you mentioned are why I'm considering a Mac. I've been lucky for years or all the precautions I've taken have been effective or both.
MagicGlock, do you have any experience with any of the MS Office suite products on your Mac?

Re: PC vs. Mac
Picked up a new 27" iMac this weekend with all the dials set to "11." Cuz, you know, that's what you need to run QuickBooks on the Mac
Here's a pic of me trying to look surprised at how large the screen is, but instead I just look angry. Probably because I'm also trying to get my taxes done, sigh.
I named it "Cinnabon," because it's incredibly huge, sweet, and decadent

Re: PC vs. Mac
Postscript: I do my own website design and development, so this will work nicely for my old eyes. I also run WIndows 8 on a nice machine next to it (not shown, because this iMac is big enough to blot out the sun )
