Digital BW, The Print

The thought of having XP on a MAC is to much. Virtual PC is a emulator and I just 
can't see it being worth it, but I might give it a try. I think that I will stick to the two 
desktops for the moment. The MAC still has problems, for example try to import 
bookmarks to either IE5 or Safari once they  have been lanched for the first time! But 
there is no doubt "Once you have been MAC you never go back"

Regards

ps I recomend the publication " Switching to the MAC" The missing manual.....
