RE: [WinMac] A Mac Alone

I can't tell you how hard a struggle it's been being the only IT Mac
professional in an organization of Windows IT professionals. Any problem the
Mac is having that a Windows machine isn't I'll get responses like "Must be
a Mac problem." People seem to criticize the things they don't understand.
Then I find out that we've bought so much Microsoft products that the only
thing that will work is some Windows software.

Don't get me wrong Microsoft makes some good software. I love Office on the
Mac and it's integration of Applescript into these programs. Microsoft also
makes some really bad products. I am just seeing Microsoft trying to get a
strangle hold on everything in the computer world. With such a monopoly out
there the only winner is Microsoft and all of lose.

To make a long gripe short it may be hard being one of the few Macintosh
users out there but your facts speak for themselves. If your running circles
around your coworkers using your Mac then sooner or later you'll get noticed
for what your doing. Then sooner or later they'll ask you how your doing it.

Hang in there Man.
