Mac

The time has come, the walrus said, to speak of many things ... like dumping Windows and buying a Mac. I'm thinking laptop because I don't want to be stuck to one room. Any Mac users out there willing to give me tip on what I should look for and/or avoid with a Mac? I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

FWIW, I think word count works okay in Open Office on my Mac Mini. I haven't double checked against anything else, though. I know I get widely different word counts depending where I post things, though. Everybody counts … differently?

In my copy of Open Office:
This is 2 words: "Hello
This is 1: Hello"
This is 3 Hello - there

And, yes, everybody counts differently. ;-)
