Not sure what "long in the tooth" means exactly related to your present computer. However I know what you mean about the attractiveness of the Mac computers and Apple products in general. Your present computer seems to be filling the bill for you at the present time (ham wise) and it must also fill family needs (apparently). I suggest leaving the present computer in its 'HAM' role in the shack (some upgrades may be possible) and going to a Mac computer of some kind. It will be primarily the 'family' computer and will give you the opportunity to explore its HAM potential in more detail. It is always a positive thing learning to use a different operating system. In the end you will have some answers to your questions, a good family computer, and a dedicated computer in the shack. Which Mac computer to buy is a different question. 73 Jim, VE3CI ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
