The machines aren't any better, but it appears the graphics users like Macs more. When a Mac fails, they don't flinch, just look for me patiently. I have five Mac desktops and three Mac laptops here at the Museum. About eight or 10 have Macs at home too. For the in-house users, I give them an extra monitor and run Parallels with Microsoft Office (Outlook) running, as all the other apps don't have all that Outlook offers. And I run Exchange here. One likes to use OWA, but the rest like to use Office for Outlook. A year or so ago I used Macs with two monitors at home as well as at the office to see the difference. The Macs are sweet, but I just like PC's better, even withstanding the half or third better pricing.
