I recently bought a MacMini after telling my wife, an avid PC user, that Macs are so much more user friendly. Now, the last time I used a Mac was with OS9 so I'm having real trouble proving that Mac's are easier because I don't really know my waty round OSX after having had to use PC's for the last 3 years.
Of the many things she is complaining about, some are:
1. You have to go through the System to be able to connect to the internet. There is no shortcut on the desktop and the icon in the finder bar isn't always there.
2. A pop-up keeps asking if she wants to stay connected to the internet- why does it not just stay connected if there's activity?
3. Word and other Office docs take ages to start up.
4. When opening attachments in emails she is always asked which programme to open it in- why does it not find a default programme like a PC does?
There are many more, but these are the ones which wind me up most- can anyone help me with these or any other bits of advice so i don't have to move the Mini and replace it with another big Bill Gates box?
