Have been using Safari for a a bit now, (well a few hours anyway!). Thoughts - looks lovely, has a superb simple download window that pops up - like download manager, fantastic favourites/bookmarks utility - makes the one on IE look prehistoric, and it is quick!

Keynote - the new preentation software looks the nadgers. The really cool thing is that you can import Powerpoints and export Powerpoints! How cool is that!? Also handles PDF's, Photoshop files etc. Trying to persuade my boss to buy it for me so I can work on stuff at home...

Cheers,

Mossman
PS Looks like a new iPod with PDA function next year, eh Andy!?

Mmm keep your eyes peeled over the next 6-7 weeks too !

Just don't expect to get one soon as orders are unlikely to be fulfilled before April according to our Apple account manager who was in today !!

Question

Whilst all the Mac peeps are in one place....

Anyone know of any outlets doing good deals on G4 867 Duals? ...probably with a Diamond plus 19". Any pointers would be appreciated as there doesnt seem to be much in the way of offers going anywhere.

Guys its is very likely that new models may apprear. Please bear in mind this is not official and we only find out the day of release. Stock on all current G4s has now dried up, which normally happens a few weeks before upgrades come along.
Sometime sprices drop when the new machines come out that is if they not sold out by then.

PS If Steve from Hemel who works in the harlequin in Watford reads this please contact me as I've lost your details.
