Personally, my opinion, I would hope some friendly Windows users hang out here. I like both sides of the computing world. Used a PC at work (now retired) and managed to get web pages published and publications printed for many years.<br><br>My grandkids use PC and Macs at school, so I fixed up their 2 iMacs with VPC.<br><br>I didn't recognize the windows icons at control panel as such. I last used Win95 regularly and have seen the OSs after that. But if they fit the purpose -- gopher it I say. I don't think either side owns the duckie image either. I have the same duckie sitting on my bath tub.<br><br><br>* * * * * * * * ** * * *<br>Kate<br>

I have to use windows at college to get on the internet everyday but my usage of windows is minimal as i have my iBook which i take to college to use instead of the slow windows boxes they have.<br><br>

The screen is way too small for me. I wish I were rich, cause the TiBook's screen is just the right size. . . . .<br><br>* * * * * * * * ** * * *<br>Kate<br>

I think they are onto a winner with the new iBook it is about the right size and a friend of mine who only uses PCs is considering buying one so if it gets atleast some PC converts it can only be a good thing.<br><br>
