Re: Apple Mac
With a Mac computer you can use programs that...* Write letters.
* Work with spreadsheets.
* Store and edit photos.
* Use the Internet, including sending and receiving e-mails.
* Watch videos.
* Play music.
* Perform a whole host of other functions.
..in fact a Mac does the much same as a Windows computer but it costs a load more money.

Only if you know the machine well!

But for such great technology, you would think you would get one in it, when you pay a £1000 for it.
Have you tried the App store for the iMac ?

Re: Apple Mac
Slowly getting round it Rob, yes the App most are not my cup of tea, but there are plenty that I will get round to eventually.Some are not too badly priced and some are expensive.
I am lucky that Apple are running this free workshop, where I can get my problems sorted.
I am not used to a wireless mouse, and this one is so sensitive, you have ne wheel on it like am used to, you have to learn to scratch it's back to get the cursor to move up and down, all good fun.
It's a bit like buying a Rolls after driving a Mini, still looking for some of the controls.

Re: Apple Mac
Wrinkly - Don't take any notice of the anti-Mac brigade. They just don't know what they are missing and have to justify their own poor choice of anything else!!My 3 yr old Mac desktop has DVD/CD but obviously the new laptops don't for some reason. I have an ipad and iphone and I love the way they all sync together. I can be reading a book on my ipad and if I only have my iphone with me I can turn up the same page on it as on the ipad and also the same music.The range of apps is much greater than for androids and anyway, I just love the design and graphics and the lack of need for security. Here are lots more reasons:

Re: Apple Mac
I've got an iPad 3 but would probably buy a Samsung or other tablet next time. I'm sure it would be just as suitable for the job and cost a lot less.

If it's thought that Macs get less trouble than an MS Windows computer, try typing 'mac problems' into Google or other search engine.
I'm not saying that Macs are better or worse than MS Windows computers, only that they give no real advantage. Both computers do exactly the same things. It's just that you'll pay more for the Mac name and possibly some styling of the case.
