I posted some stuff on this about 1 1/2 years ago to this list- perhaps
it's in the archives?  I have used Ref Man for PC and EndNote for Mac, so
my comments don't necessarily apply to Ref Man/Mac or EndNote PC
Briefly:
EndNote: cheaper, easier interface, adequate for most things though I
haven't tried to put references in footnotes, etc. which has been the focal
point for some problems discussed on this list.  With the most recent
upgrade, EndNote Mac has apparently acquired some of the things that I
liked about Ref Man: global editing capability, and lists of keywords and
authors
Ref Man: more powerful, had better reference import utilities but that may
have changed with new versions of EndLink.  has MAJOR LIMITATION that you
can have ONLY ONE large library (only one library over about 250-300
references)
