Nice to hear good things about Macintosh. I've been using Macs since 1984-85 when I worked in an ad agency. Word 1.0 was one of the first software programs I learned (not too tough). Long-time DOS and Windows users might not recognize that low number, because Apple got the original Microsoft Word release.

I now use a desktop G4 Cube, which is outdated, but man is it the coolest. Don't know why they made them such a short time. It is a TRUE desktop because you can just sit it on an out-of-the-way corner of a desk. Plus, no buttons, touch the lexan top in the right spot and bing! One CD slot on top next to the passive ventilation port (power supply is on the end of the power cord--no fan)!

The most expensive one-slice toaster I ever bought, and one of the last Cubes sold new. The Cube was among the first new Mac designs launched after Steve Jobs returned to Apple.

PS I am NOT a computer wizard, and code remains just that to me. Something in code-- ie for qualified code breakers only.
