RE: [Digital BW] smaller Mac market

2004-08-16 by Ken Carney

Hi, Chris.  I can't tell you about a comparison since I've never owned a
Mac.  But, my home PC with XP and IP (Epson 2200) is pretty easy (easy is
good) and I've never had a stability problem with it.  That's XP home.
Everyone in our firm bitches about XP Pro.  Our IT manager told me I need to
come into the 21st century, so she ordered me an IBM notebook with XP pro.
I thought, OK, I need something to take on trips to download CF cards,
anyway, so no problem.  Guess I'll find out if there is really a difference
in the versions.
