Back to XP
Sorry for the lack of updates this week. I decided to go back to XP on my work machine so I’ve spent a few days getting the machine back to the way I like it.
I was just reading though my RSS feeds and started laughing, there are 2 or 3 big name products out there to get windows visualized on a Mac, yet I don’t see anything to make Mac apps run on windows…..hummm.. for all the Mac heads saying how great a Mac is….they still need windows and all its supported software
