Evelyn, you're kind. Some days I can barely open a can. But then I'm left-handed - thank gawd for the Black & Decker automated can opener!
I just downloaded the Firefox and discovered I already had an older version of it on my MacBook Pro! A friend's husband who is a professional lobster fisherman accuses me of using the computer as a glorified typewriter. That works for me. Another friend who gave up being a writer to become a doctor once told me his new computer could do everything but make coffee and he wasn't so sure it couldn't do that.
I am looking at buying a smaller MacBook Pro for travel. I looked at the Mac Air but my Mac dealer shook his head at it. I have considered the iPAD, but a webmaster I know in the UK isn't that keen on it. Pretty, but not a lot of function was his verdict, but I wasn't sure if he was speaking for his work or mine.
When I travel I really do like to simply sit in a cafe for an hour each day and scribble notes in my moleskin. I seem to make different observations with pen and paper than fingers on keys. And with paper I worry less that someone will steal it or that it will get damaged or trying to not fry it on a strange electrical system. See, l-u-d-d-i-t-e.
Allan -- The words Luddite and Mac are an oxymoron. If you are a Mac user, you are not a Luddite. Does not compute (pun intended).
I use both Safari and Firefox on my Macs (plural -- iMac for office, MacBook for travel). Firefox is much better for bookmarking and remembering log-in info. You'll love it. I use Safari less and less these days (please don't tell them).
Ed -- Didn't know about the Screengrabber add-on. Brilliant! Sounds easier than Mac's own built-in system.
Hi,
Luddite here - which means I'm a life-long Mac owner. Where does one find firefox?
