Hi marie and all
the great thing about the apple OS platform that makes it so nice to work with
is, choice, choice, and more choice. There are a number of ways to carry out
different tasks, and each mac user will find out what works best for him or her
by just playing with the different options. Marie, if you would like some mac
help in person, for either you or your daughter, mail me off list and we could
sort something out, as i very much enjoy helping people with macs and i also
have the time to do it so it's no trouble.
