Kate, just a hint from a Mac geek... Leave your credit card at home. Macs can be definately addictive! I know what I'm talking about. I started my computer carrer with a PC, but switched to Mac during university. And I'll never go back if I have to. And after the release of Mac OSX it's have been getting even worse. I really look forward to your report. Phil aka TheWingedOne (Who'd like to go to SF, too. But has to stay in Germany, cause he's gotta go to work to earn some bucks to get Vue 4 for his Mac. lol)
