John, with some of the old computers it was impossible to get software to run
on both machines, some of the new computers have limited compatibility. I
have found that some things can go to school to be run on the G 3 s. These
have a dual platform. I haven't tried to run anything at school on my PC
here at home. I want to tell you that for the investment I still don't
understand why people buy MACs. We were not given a choice at school the
tech. committee decided that the elem. schools would all use MAC's and we
have a ton of them. However when the kids go to the middle and high schools
the technology is all PCs.
My own two kids use a MAC at school and prefer the PCs to the MACs, I have
noticed that with time the two have continued to look more and more the same
with the kinds of programming that runs. Narda
