    MAC or PC?

    I am sure you have all seen the commercials of the MAC vs. PC. In the six months I have been entering sweepstakes I use a Mac at home and a PC at work. I am planning on closing my business this year and retiring, so now I have a dilemma, do I use a Mac or a PC? At home we have wireless and an ultra fast airport. I use firefox and autofill, but plan on trying roboform. What are your suggestions? I have three ultra smart and computer savvy children but they think my new hobby is really lame and are of no help. My husband is slightly better but still uninterested. Although I will say when a prize comes such as my blue ray dvd player, i pod , itouch ipod, or visa cards they all want the prizes! If you could have your ideal computer set up what would it be? Thanks for your input!

    I love Roboform. It has cut my time in half. I am a fan of the PC myself, I don't know a whole lot about Macs, though I don't care for the single button mouse I had to use the last time I touched a Mac. I'd be lost without my scroll wheel. Good Luck Sweeping no matter what you decide to use!

    I don't know if robo is supported by anything on mac. Wish it did cause I really like safari (on my PC) ! but no robo for it! Started out yrs ago as a mac user and I really do appreciate it but back then it was so limited as far as available software that I  slowly switched over. Ah, well. If anyone finds robo for safari (PC) I'd love to know about it!

    I am in the same boat as Sees . . . I was a die-hard Mac user for years, but so many things stopped working, and my work files (on PC) were not compatible, so I switched to PC at home.  I miss a lot of things about my Mac, but I do love the two-button mouse and scroll-wheel on PC!

     Since you're entering sweeps I would think your choice would be the MAC because of the less chance of getting a virus.  Besides, I love my MAC and they are so much more reliable.

    I'm a Mac Big Smile and I don't think there is a roboform for Mac.  I use Foxfire with Fireform and I'm very happy with it.  Safari was crashing too much and autofill was only one step better than typing so I switched.
