Um, I have an Apple store next to me. That's my support place. Virtual PC allows Macs to run Windows software. Macs are not expensive when considering the quality and features. Macs DO work with PC and can use the same netwroks to transfer files. Flopppies are a thing of the past.
(I'm just rehashing the inevitable 1987-vintage arguments I hear about Macs. It's supposed to be a joke) ;)
Cheers, CC :)
