[QUOTE="littlemin, post: 232660"] Hi Dohidied, Thanks for your reply. But after reading your post, it almost certainly made me want to go back to Windows! It just seemed so troublesome! I simply just want to share the files in between two OS. I've actually narrowed down my choices to either the Lenovo X60 (I have always loved the IBMs and this one is only 3lbs/12 inch, and it has my favorite, a trackpoint!) or the macbook. One thing that concerns me is getting used to mb's touchpad and not using the trackpoint. I felt that the mighty mouse was not too responsive. How do you guys navigate when using a macbook, if a mouse is not currently present? Back to the file sharing question. Can I put my windows office files into a flash drive or something, and drag the files into the mac OS via USB? That way I don't have to deal with the NTFS or FAT32 stuff. Am I too naive? or I just don't get it? I downloaded Windows Office files from my e-mail via my cousin's iMac and it opened perfectly. Sorry if I still don't get it..... :( [/QUOTE]
