Walker, I worked one summer at Boeing and they used Macs. Previously I had used IBM's and I loved the Mac and always thought I would buy one. With all the debate over which platform was better, I waited. Well, it seems that IBM-based computers are winning and I think the circumstances may be different now. I do appreciate your point, although, I am not talking about high-priced computers, I am talking about software. I think this may be a different scenario but you may be entirely correct. Just theorizing.

There may be a little Provincial "nepotism" going on with the purchase of software by the Ontario Government from Corel. I guess time will tell if other provinces hop on in the same respect. I'm sure they will also target large companies to switch over. This could be a turn around or "the end". Either way, I'll be around to see what happens.
