Well, isn't *that* special.

So, what's the difference between a Mac running Windows (I've read that it
can) and a PC running Windows?


It's an emulation and not a strict operating system as I understand
it. Kind an overlay.

Personally, I find Macs very hard to use. It takes a particular mind
set to operate a Mac compared to Windows.

There is nothing "intuitive" about a Mac operating system.


One year they gave all of us teaching in Fairfax County a new Mac for the
classroom.

Everyone bitched.

So they gave us all PC emulator programs for the Mac so we could run
Windows and all the Windows software we already had.

Everyone still bitched.

So the next year they gave us all Dells and put the Macs in one room for
the kids.

The next year they got rid of the Macs and put Dells everywhere.
