It must be. She hasn't installed any new programs or apps other than
what Apple told her to install to get the full setup.

Mrs.E. is actually enjoying the learning process and transition from
her
PC to the Mac. She was just telling me that she now sees how similar
things are to her iPhone and iPad that she uses. She just installed
"iPhoto", opened it and it appears that all the photos that are on her
iPad and iPhone now show up on the iMac.

She's becoming a geek.



It's a smartphone on steroids. You can tell her I said that.

You mean I just spent $1,962.56 for a "smart phone" ?



Are you kidding me... Is that what folks are paying now to post pictures
of their cats and check facebook? I do all my work on a three year old,

It was her Christmas, Anniversary and Birthday present, all wrapped up
in one. Makes my shopping easy.

Besides ... I happen to have an unopened box containing "Pro Tools"
that I've been interested in trying.
