<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Last night was my first time attending a DMMUG meeting (great presentation!!) and enjoyed being in the company of kindred spirits. There's something about the Mac mindset that separates the wheat from the chaff. I started using the Mac in 1984 and have done lots of things with it. However when I started my bakery business in 1999 (I'm hearing a Prince tune in my mind) -- the bakery pricing software was in the Windows world -- so I went to what I call "The Dark Side" and purchased a Gateway computer as emulation software at that time was slowwwwww and erratic... and I just didn't have the time to fuss with it. I had bread to bake!! Right Ann??<div><br></div><div>I just recently purchased my iMac and am like a pig in slop. I do run VMWARE Fusion on my iMac... but when it's up and running it's called "Mauri's Dark Side Machine." I realize that computers are "tools" and there's a reason for different types of tools -- but the Mac OS system and software truly surpasses the other worlds. Of course I'm preaching to the choir here.</div><div><br></div><div>Now that I've found the Impromptu Studios building... I'm planning on making it to the monthly meetings for sure.</div><div><br></div><div>I parked in the Doors lot at 7th and Elm... is there any space/place closer?</div><div><br></div><div>What are the AT&T costs for the iPod? My Sprint contract will be running out in the fall... and I'm seriously looking at the iPod for several reasons -- personal and business.</div><div><br></div><div>mauri booton</div><div>founder: project Woo Hoo!!</div><div><a href="mailto:haynee@dwx.com">haynee@dwx.com</a></div><div><br><div><div>On Feb 25, 2009, at 12:00 PM, <a href="mailto:dmmug-request@dmmug.org">dmmug-request@dmmug.org</a> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Send DMMUG mailing list submissions to<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><a href="mailto:dmmug@dmmug.org">dmmug@dmmug.org</a><br><br>To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>http://cialug.org/mailman/listinfo/dmmug<br>or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>dmmug-request@dmmug.org<br><br>You can reach the person managing the list at<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>dmmug-owner@dmmug.org<br><br>When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific<br>than "Re: Contents of DMMUG digest..."<br>Today's Topics:<br><br> 1.
