I agree with Xeno. I have just started using My 505 on the Mac and it's fine. I do have Parallels installed to run Windows in case I need it but I haven't touched it since I started libprs500 to manage the library.

On the others: .mac - no, applecare -yes

I use Google everything for calendar, email, address, etc. so I have no need of .Mac. For photos I use Smugmug, which is THE BEST MOST AMAZING photo host in existence.

I wish I would have bought Applecare for the notebooks. These hard drives are not of great quality. Two macbooks + 3 replacement drives = a headache.
