[Leica] Migrating to Mac

Tina,

I've trade on year ago to Mac, I've bought the 24" Monitor, you will  
need a new software PS, Office etc. for Mac. Time Machine is wonderful  
for your automatic safe backups, monitor es very bright, if you have  
an EIZO it will be better. Initally is quite different from a PC,  
after you can do the same; what I think about the Mac is that it is  
more sure than a PC, i.e. never virus problem.

I have a bad experience with all the labtops I owned, I always had  
disc problems (with Toshiba, HP, Compaq).

I think so that Leopard is better than Vista, I find it horrible.

Final conclusion for me is work with a Mac is safer

I hope this helps

Saludos
Lluis
