[DM-MUG] First Time Attendee... I'll Be Back!!

[mauri booton]

Last night was my first time attending a DMMUG meeting (great  
presentation!!) and enjoyed being in the company of kindred spirits.  
There's something about the Mac mindset that separates the wheat from  
the chaff. I started using the Mac in 1984 and have done lots of  
things with it. However when I started my bakery business in 1999 (I'm  
hearing a Prince tune in my mind) -- the bakery pricing software was  
in the Windows world -- so I went to what I call "The Dark Side" and  
purchased a Gateway computer as emulation software at that time was  
slowwwwww and erratic... and I just didn't have the time to fuss with  
it. I had bread to bake!! Right Ann??

I just recently purchased my iMac and am like a pig in slop. I do run  
VMWARE Fusion on my iMac... but when it's up and running it's called  
"Mauri's Dark Side Machine." I realize that computers are "tools" and  
there's a reason for different types of tools -- but the Mac OS system  
and software truly surpasses the other worlds. Of course I'm preaching  
to the choir here.

Now that I've found the Impromptu Studios building... I'm planning on  
making it to the monthly meetings for sure.

I parked in the Doors lot at 7th and Elm... is there any space/place  
closer?

What are the AT&T costs for the iPod? My Sprint contract will be  
running out in the fall... and I'm seriously looking at the iPod for  
several reasons -- personal and business.
