Making the Switch from PC to Mac


Making the Switch is easy nowadays.  But, is it for you? 

Here are the top 3 pros and cons for making the switch.

Pros: 
1.  Word & Excel will work fine with AppleWorks or by installing Microsoft Office for Mac
2.  Digital cameras may use iPhoto software
3.  Pictures will be recognized flawlessly

Cons:
1.  Getting used to the single-button mouse.  That means no left or right-click button. Solution: Buy a third-party two-button mouse.

2.  Outlook & Outlook Express are tricky to transfer over without utilities. 
Solution:  Use a $10 software utility from Little Machines to move your e-mail over.

3.  Built-in firewall is not activated by default like Windows. 
Solution:  Use Mac Help in the finder for instructions on how to activate the firewall.
