Off topic WindowsXP going going gone

[Mark Grima]

Thanks guys,

Fusion is what I was thinking of. I have not come across Parallels so will have to investigate that one. I am aware of the software just don't know how good it is. I think it will get the job done for me as I will need to both OSX and Windows at the same time.

I use Office mac now on both our macs with Tiger on the Powerbook and Leopard on the imac and it works great on both.

Cheers

The cheapest way to get Fusion at the moment is direct from the Vmware website ($79.95 USD) rather than buying box product in Australia.

James K. In windows to do a screen shot I can use the Snipper tool under vista or hit one key Prt Scr, compared to the complicated key sequence under a Mac. Likewise for switching apps I can just Alt Tab under windows which is ideal for doing cut and paste. There are a few things like that, including clipboard history for pasting items which are just far easier under a windows machine. Most of the work I do is in Word, either responding to RFP's or writing Uni assignments which is just easier in Office 2007 than a Mac and Office 2008. I don't have anything against a Mac, they are just not for me.
