Article: [senco-forum] Apple seminars

Well how about we at least desist until the Autumn when chestnuts are
once again falling from the trees and what's in the forthcoming new
version of OS-X is no longer speculative vapourware. Yawn. ;-)

> The new version of Windows 'Vista' will once again introduce
> a whole raft of features currently only available on Macs.
> Will this bring PCs up to the same standarda as Macs? Well a

> what it's new features will be. What we do know is that Macs

> of both worlds.

> Many of the posts on SENCo forum concern 'old chestnuts'. I
> for one would not wish that to see that change.
