Hi Ken,

I'm curious, specifically, what you couldn't find available for the mac (other than games) that you could for windows?

Everything from Microsoft Office apps to accounting to all the major creative apps are available on both platforms. (Although Adobe has dropped mac development for its Premier video editing app) And most documents you generate on either platform can be ported to the other.

I've never found a need to touch a PeeCee. I really don't think either platform "owns" a monopoly in any field (other than games...), although it is possible that more macs are used for design than PeeCees.
