As usual, Martin, you have answered my questions - about MK and PPP. Thanks for sharing your research. I bought the scripts on sale to use in VirtualPC on my Mac, along with CR2Edit and other PC-only utilities, which are easier to run on my Mac than my #$@%!! PC. I couldn't work without PCs, but mostly use them for testing and final delivery. When I really feel sorry for PC owners is when I plug my DV camera into my Mac's Firewire port and wip the video into FinalCutPro for speedly, painless video production. What a joy after digitizing and processing on a PC and Premier. And my brother's $2500 G4 produced a perfect DVD right out of the box - leaving him and his colleagues speechless. And my mom's "cute" iMac is the envy of her retirement community. So none of the gloom and doom talk worries me.
