Re: Macs and PCs Deborah (Debbie) L. Smith 04 May 2000 07:47 EST

Our campus has a mix of Macs and PCs; so my office has at least one of each
so that we can make forms, etc. available to folks regardless of the type of
equipment they have.

I have found that it's much easier to receive and actually open and read
different types of files, attachments, etc. on a PC as opposed to the Mac I
(although I found the Mac easier to use overall).

It's probably possible to share files across platforms, but since we have so
many folks who are not too familiar with all of that (and usually running
short of time), we try to keep both going to make for easier access for
everyone (and fewer calls for our staff to handle).  We're also trying to
put everything on the web to make for easy access for our folks at remote
locations.

Good luck!
