[senco-forum] apple progs?

Hi

To add to what Alex has already written I would add that the
new Macs run WinXP and Vista fantastically (just as well as
a comparable PC) of course you do have to have a copy of
WinXp to load onto your Mac in the first place.

I think Alex's idea of emailing Adobe is much better.

Failing that there is always BitTorrent of course ;o)

BTW I switched to Macs a couple of years back and it is the
best 'tech' decision I have ever made. They are especially
good for SEN students of course.

Mark
