Re: Running WDSC on a Mac

                Hey All,

Not to stay of topic but...

I just bought a iMac and it is great, it does what computers are supposed to 
do..works. No driver issues, no install issues, no virus protection needed. If 
you want to uninstall a program you move it to the trash can. Its fast and fun 
especially if your creative. Dont get me wrong I still need PC's for work and 
dont think they are all bad but thier isnt any comparison. I will be installing 
Parallel to run XP for my favorite windows programs (MS Money), games and of 
course virus protection/firewall :)

Thanks for listening and again sorry about being off topic in this list. 

Don N.

PS: My iMac has a 7200 rpm 240 Gb HD.
