Hurrah! Send me a U2U if you want me to pop over and help sort it out (the computer, not the abacus).
Have you done six impossible things before breakfast?

Until it comes to trying to get any kind of response from their customer service monkeys.
Are you a Mac user or a retard?

I had an eMac and it is a fine machine but i found Mac os a real pain as it wouldn't copy my files to where i wanted..well it did but i
couldn't access them which was a pain. It would be ok if you were starting from scratch. It was also noisy.
Shame really as the mac's look SO cool and the OS looks so much nicer than Windows.
If you were only going to use the machine for internet and email then ok i would go for that but otherwise stick will a windows system. i went for
dell and we now have 3 in our house.
Whatever you buy make sure you get decent anti-virus and anti-spam software!!
Good luck

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Never mind, it's the thought that counts.
Yup, it's up & running. I'm very pleased with it so far.
I'v downloaded Grisoft instead of the Norton anti wotsit. Don't know if that's right?
It's got Paint shop pro on 60 day trial, but I miss my Photoshop. I'll have to spend some more money I guess.
Many thanks Ian, your post was almost spot on. ( If you want me to explain that I'll U2U you )
 Tomorrow I'v got to go and pay for it
Thanks chaps, Paul G

Aye, Paint Shop Pro is a poor relation of Photoshop. It's good value for money but some of its functions just aren't as intuitive.
It'll definitely be worth saving up your pocket money and getting Elements. Then you can post photos galore and start more arguments over
welding, which the forum currently seems to be lacking
