Greetings,
Perhaps this is a silly question but as I've been using pcs for years
I'm in the dark. I'm contemplating purchasing a Macbook Pro 17 for my
work which up until now has been entirely in a linux environment. If I
purchase a Mac, can I run Ubuntu successfully in something akin to VBox
or do I need to have a dual booting machine? I've been so accustomed to
free software and the beauty that is the Synaptic Package Manager that
I'm reluctant to have to purchase any software. Will the scripts that
I've written for rsync, hpodder, etc. work in the Mac environment? Is
anyone using Scribus on Mac that can comment on its performance (I use
it a lot).
Sorry if these questions are not in the vein of this list but I know
that Scott is a Mac advocate and I'd appreciate any helpful comments.
Thank you,
Tim
