[QUOTE="Benincasa, post: 961112, member: 135507"] I have never used a mac before but I have become interested in switching over since acquiring an iPhone. If such a small phone/handheld computer does what it does so elegantly then a real apple computer must be a dream. I have a key question though, and it is a dealbreaker. I work a lot from home (about 50% of the time), so my work will be split between a mac environment (at home if i get a macbook pro) and a windows environment at work. I use Microsoft Outlook for my email needs. Each time I switch from work to home or vice versa I save all of my emails as a .pst file on a memory key and upload them to whichever computer I am working on. This is a very simple process taking less than 30 seconds each time I do it. It means that I have a complete archive of emails both at home and at work. Is it possible to get Microsoft Office operating on a Mac in exactly the same way as on a PC? Will I still be able to save my files as .pst files and upload them quicky as I do now. I have seen hints that Microsoft will produce Outlook for Mac next year. Will this give me the flexibility that I want? I am aware of software like Outlook2MAc but this will not give me what i want as I will be switching from a mac to pc environment several times a week and I want complete access to my emails in each location.
