people as well as business people.
I suspect that the artists are the ones with the Macs, and that they
would not tolerate the imposition of the windows desktop.
I use a Mac and, yes, VPC when necessary -- I just can't/won't use
windows unless there is no other alternative,
IMO, there is just no comparison (no flames please -- I said IMO)

Subject: SOT: desktop application
I have a question about what the best practice would be for creating a
desktop application.��I do websites for some different bands, and they
all have an e-mail sign-up on their website.��Most of them also have
some kind of a paper sign-up at concerts for people to sign up for the
email list.��I was considering building an app that would run on a
desktop to allow people at concerts to enter their email address and
write it to a text or xml file that could then be uploaded to the
webserver and parsed into the database.
My question is what would be the best method to do this?��I was
thinking
of doing the front end in Flash but I'm not sure how to write to a file
from there.��In theory, this app would need to work on a mac and a pc.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
