Hey all, I have been reading the Rumors page for a week or so trying to get myself convinced to make the BIG SWITCH after 15 years of design on PC.
After seeing the depth of this site and the level of support for each other, I made the decision to go MAC baby!
Here's the hitch.
I have been asked to co-partner a marketing company with a design client and help create software titles that we market to the real estate industry. Long story short...I told my new partner of my plans and he almost fell over. He said that I have to work via PC because thew software titles are designed around PC and use the Office products to build many of the marketing materials he sells.
I countered with the old "Yeah, but there is Office for Mac!" but he was pretty freaked. This project takes precedence, so I would stay PC if I had to, but I have the MAC Bug now!!!
I would love your take on my situation! Is Virtual PC able to run ANY and all PC based software on it? Are the end products coming out of MAC Office exactly the same and openable in PC Office? Lots of questions and not sure where to start.
Thanks all...love this site!
