Help, Help, Need help in Webdesign software

Sounds like the course she is in is dictating a particular program. If they were teaching good principles it wouldn't matter at all. All that is actually needed for web design is a graphics program for creating your mockups and graphics, and text editor (TextEdit, Notepad, etc.) for creating the code to make it all happen. If they are saying she needs Dreamweaver (because that is what the course uses that is available for both Macs and PCs). Sadly there are too many courses like this that don't actually teach web design, they just teach you how to build a site using Program X.

She could just get a copy of Parallels (or Fusion) and WinXP and whatever they require and be fine) if they get really uptight about it. If they tell her that they are using Frontpage tell her to get out and get her money back.
