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
