Absolutely. Still stunned by the number of people who buy Core i5 and i7 laptops from us to do really basic stuff, and how easily they can be talked into buying $300+ of MS Office when they could use something like Open Office for free. We arent talking business laptops - many of these come back with viruses etc and its appalling to see how little evidence there is that the thing has been used for anything beyond Limewire and email.

My favourite, from my computer days : " I need Office Professional, because I'm a Professional".
In fact, it pretty much extended to anything with "Pro" or "Professional" in the name - they never needed the extra content/features, but because they were "a professional" they had to have it.

Yes my iPad is very happy and so am I.

I finally got around to buying a camera connection kit and have connected up the Gamma 2 and Talisman.

Now I can stream music from the computer to the iPad making my iMac almost exclusively a TV and music streamer. Apple just need to fix a bug that doesn't update play counts in iTunes when using Home Sharing.

When Access grows up, it really, really wants to be a database. Or a fireman.
