I take it your children are going or are already into publishing which is the only reason I can think anyone would choose a Mac over a PC, or they know very little about either and believe the silly adverts that Apple have been making, trying to run other peoples products down is hardly a way to promote your own, especially when the scripts are based on misinformation and presented by 2 useless comedians.</P><P>Anyway all the 'how do you.........' files are under start\help then key in words for the subject or feature you are having difficulty with, there is a complete set of instructions and hints and tips on how to get the best out of Vista. There is a useful axiom for times like this, "when all else fails.........read the instructions".Wed, 12 Dec 2007 04:16:48 GMTcyclichttp://www.vistaforums.com/Forum/Topic12387-7-1.aspxTwo of my kids, 17 and 23, were checking out the new Mac OS X guided tour on the Apple website. They both now want a Mac!!! Apple has done a great job of marketing their new OS of late. My question is: Since Vista is supposed to be so great, where is Microsoft's guided tour of Vista to make them want Vista????<br><br>The 23 year old got a great deal on a HP laptop at Thanksgiving. It has Vista Home Premium, which evidently has media center as well. BUT, HOW DO YOU USE IT? <br>Apple's guided tour does a great job of explaining how use the basic desktop, but the only thing I found from Microsoft was the reasons I should get Vista, not showing how easy it is to use Vista, or how much easier than XP it is.<br><br>When will you learn, Bill, that real people use your computer OS and it should be easy, stable and safe?<br><br>SteveLTue, 11 Dec 2007 16:59:41 GMTSteveL
