I've been using Macs since Mac Plus.
The last one I bought about 2006 was the first of the iMacs and mildly
regretted it because of its incompatability with PCs and shortage of

The new ones do seem to be able to be able to use Microsoft Office
for Mac.
at least, so I ordered and paid for a new iMac Intel Tiger, rather
than a
PC,
But possibly there is an even worse incompatability - with previous
Macs! I
had expected to able to use if not previous software, at least
hardware.
Apparently the Canon printer I bought less than a year ago can't be
used -
and, indeed, it's not clear whether ANY of the printers listed in the
Mac
Store have drivers for the Intel Macs. My old Mac may be more
compatible
with a PC than with a new Mac, or am I missing something?
Definitely NOT funny,

What model Canon printer is it that you are having trouble with
