mneme_forgets was the first one.
1. What time did you get up this morning? 7AM

7. What is your favourite food? Chocolate, cheese, pasta with tomato sauce and lots of mozzarella
8. What foods do you dislike? Fish, many vegetables, most kinds of fruit

Re: x
Nah. I've adapted, but I wish I could go back to living at night.
Word processing is the one place where I have given in to the Evil Empire. I've been an MS Word user from college and have grown so used to it that I can't imagine using anything else. So I use Office:Mac and am pretty happy with it (I was able to pick it up cheap with the educator discount).
You currently use Star Office, correct? It's possible to run Star Office on the Mac; I have it installed, although I almost never use it. I'll be seeing other Mac-savvy friends at lunch today (I know a *lot* of dedicated Mac people) so I can ask around.

That would be kind and gracious of you. I had not realized Star had a Mac version. It seems I have more options than I had thought. The Mariner Write program is only thiry dollars! Wow! I can understand your using Word. It is so often we become so used to something that a change is more trouble than it is worth. Over the years, I have learned to hate Gates and his sloppy programming so much, I almost retch at the thought of using anything from his shop. Typical convert zeal. ;-)
Re: x
Well, to my knowledge, it doesn't. Not for OSX, anyway. But you can run it using an X-Windows emulator. (MC will know what that means if you don't. ;) There's one built in to OSX.) But I'm sure there are more straightforward option; I'll see what I can find out today.
