Well I've been away from this forum for a long long time...so much so I missed it. Missed the assistance I received when I started to use the Mac more than before however still not a complete switcher (using my main PC to type this in) I am still using my Macs.

However the one loopy eMac I had is now been sold, someone needed a power supply to go with their logic board, turns out he used the entire casing, monitor and whatnot and installed his logic board to make one decent working eMac. Now that's recycling ! Was easier to just swap the board in to it.

Still got one eMac and the Mini. Love em both and now run VMWare Fusion on the Mini. It get's looks from my Mac friend when I pop open a window and BAM XP is on the screen hehe. Still doing the bootcamp thing when I want the raw speed but mostly run XP in Fusion, it's a nice package to say the least.

Hopefully in the near future I'll have a nice new iMac to play with here as I am saving up big time for a 24 incher since I'm now spoiled by large displays.

Here's hoping my expperiences can be of help to new people to the Mac world on this forum as I'm now back and ready to help, still don't know it all but with what I do know, I could be considered....dangerous ! lol

Welcome back, I don't think you were around when I registered.

I've spend a few months away aswell, what can you say when the "real world" calls.
