Since I'm on the Mac until my laptop gets its over heating problem fixed I'll probably be learning a lot more on alternatives soon.
Wonder if there is a trial on Virtual PC for the Mac. I really need to run Access for a couple of site updates. Oh well, guess I'll be finding out how well Dreamweaver MX 2004 works with remote databases. Thank god for 30 day trials.

OpenOffice.org is a fantastic alternative to Office, it creates and reads .doc files without any problems, I am constantly creating my essays in open office and taking them into Uni to print out, Linux at home, Windows 2k/NT4 Terminal Server at uni, no problems at all!
