I have a computer class this semester, which involves MS Office 2007. No way around using windows for that. I am also very familiar with MS Word for writing papers. I have IWork, but really haven't gotten into it. I am so used to the keystroke combinations in MS Word for centering, hanging indents, etc. I am using the Mac almost exclusively this summer, however. I do all my downloading with it, my E-mail, web surfing, etc. I use Book Share quite often for research, and don't know how that is going to work on the Mac either. The only reason I would like to have windows on the Mac is that I would only need to carry one machine around in my backpack. Two laptops get rather heavy, even though they are a 13 inch Macbook Pro and a 14.1 windows computer. On Jun 5, 2010, at 8:36 PM, Olivia Norman wrote:
