Hello from Australia
Hi, my name is Alison.
I live on the east coast of Australia, in a little piece of paradise called Merimbula. My home overlooks the town and the coast. I live there with my husband, my son (a trainee chef), 2 dogs and 1 cat. Apart from reading, which I love to do, I also paint, cook and (occasionally) garden. This is my first venture into eBooks. Although I love computers, I work with them every day, so normally prefer my books as hard or soft-cover. However, eBooks look like a great option for travel, or when I can't sleep and don't wish to disturb my hubbies slumber. cheers to all Alison

Greetings and Welcome.
Once you are hooked on reading ebooks, be warned, escape is futile. Cheers |

Go into the section for Apple and fish around. If you don't find answers...then ask questions.
I use Windows, but everyone is most helpful. Good luck. Cheers |

First thing that you need to know about Macintosh is all of the hardware and mostof the software that it works with is proprietary - available from only one source so you will need to go to Apple for anything and everything.
