Mac computer question

Martha you probably have a newer operating system than I do, although for Right Click not to pop up a menu is very odd!
Unfortunately the closest Apple Store to us is about 50 miles.

Biggest problem I had after switching from a PC was trying to do things the PC Way... once I went with right click, dragging things where I wanted, etc I really started to like the Mac.
Macs are computers
I always thought they were the last name of the popular sandwich

Bah. Two-button and one-button mice both always seemed silly to me, having learned computing on X-windows. Left button selects, middle button pastes, right button calls the menu....

I used a PC for 15 years; since 1992, Dave. I got "it" quite well, thank you. I also learned w/o a mouse for the first month I owned a computer. Having the ability to mouse is handy but I still prefer keyboard shortcuts when possible.

Someone over in the Computer forum recommended Mac when the +1 buys a laptop (desktop is getting old and want something smaller). We still need to investigate. I have a three-year old Sony Vaio that works for me, but it looks like Vista is coming and many are not happy with it. Anyone have experience with Vista??

When I recently ordered my new PC, (Dell) I had the option of Vista or XP and I stuck with XP. I also do some business with a local computer store and the owner told me he could hardly give Vista away.
Again, different strokes for different folks.
Mostly, Vista depends on you having a fast enough PC. If XP was a bit sluggish, don't even think it.
I upgraded the RAM in both our PCs to 2GB, and the video cards, and I like Vista overall - lots of tiny tweaks that can really make a difference in the useability.
I run Vista Ultimate on my notebook, and Home Premium on my main PC and Virginija's PC. (MS had a family deal where you could get 2 Home Premium's for $50 each if you bought Ultimate - a good deal).
