[QUOTE="stsanford, post: 586355, member: 47445"] After hearing how amazing, reliable, wonderful Mac is, and seeing the MacBook Air ads, I think I'm going to take the plunge... Here's the software I use, I'm hoping for some pointers in replacements. See to me, getting work done and having applications that make me more productive is the important thing. (See, my XP machines don't crash, could have something to do with the fact that I know what the heck I'm doing, but the Mac commercials don't really fit my experiences with PCs too well) So, I'm looking for software analogues to the following critical applications I use daily: GoldMine CRM My #1 Main Application. Quotewerks Quoting program which integrates with CRM and QuickBooks QuickBooks (know that there's QuickBooks for Mac) Quicken (Know there's Quicken for Mac) E-Mail Prog. that interfaces with Exchange for e-mail & calendaring. Some sort of VNC / RDP / PCAnywhere aggregator. Currently I use SmartCode VNC Manager which works extremely well. If I can do the work I do day-to-day, I will switch. I have no issue with learning new software or even adopting new processes or mindsets, but I just cannot afford to give up functionality or productivity. Thanks in advance, Scott [/QUOTE]
