Apple is holding their European Expo and nowadays being a Mac owner thought I'd go along. If Apple has such a pitiful market share then you'd expect it to be a small show with little software and few visitors. Er No, this was the complete opposite. Pictures of the Expo included.

Nice report and great photos!
Microsoft like it or not are a very important player in the Apple scene. Office for Mac 04, is a fantastic piece of software and is nicely integrated into the Mac environment. The biggest benefit I can see of this product is that it provides some comfort to first time Mac users when making the choice to switch from Windows (something I have done recently myself). My biggest worry was being able to work with files from work. I know there are many other apps that will open Word and Excel files, but i just wanted to take one step at a time (yes I'm a chicken).
All in all, I am totally impressed with my Mac as are the many people who get to see me using it. I get many questions and comments from people who are curious about Apple but aren't yet willing to make the jump.
I'm not a hardcore give me Apple or give me death user. I also run Redhat linux, Windows XP and RISC OS on computers I use daily. Since I've got my Mac I use the others less and less, it's just a nicer experience.
