Read the Steve Jobs book and you will understand why Microsoft products will not perform well on the I devices.

Hi Carol, Well I use a Mac for nearly everything. THe only time I use WIndows is on a VM at work and mainly because I need to ensure 100% compatibility for Microsoft Word. If Microsoft would get its thumb out and make the Office suite accessible I might not need Windows at all. However, with that said I consider myself to be very efficient using the Mac, but then I also have a good number of years experience. Therefore, if you are willing to accept that there will be a learning curve and you are prepared to put the time in, then you will do just fine. Remember the effort it took to master the world of iOS. :) THe best thing is you can always have both with the Mac. You can run the Mac and WIndows for things that you really cannot live without. Hey you can even run Linux on that VM if yo like. :) On Jun 18, 2012, at 8:01 AM, Carol Pearson wrote: > Hi all, > > The time is coming now to replace my current desktop and I'm thinking about a Mac. > > Seriously, though, can you really work as quickly when it comes to editing docs? > > What is out there that will work for database and word processing that will give you the full functionality you expect? > > Carol P > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group. > To search the VIPhone public archive, visit http://www.mail-archive.com/viphone@googlegroups.com/. > To post to this group, send email to viphone@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to viphone+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/viphone?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
