Joanne, I don't know a thing about the Mac computer's I have a good computer that has lots of memory and it work's fine. I don't know if I can get the Germanna site or not. I haven't tried. I use AOL most of the time. Personally, I would probably buy the same computer that I have when I buy a new one. The store where I bought my computer is not running over with customer's wanting for a MAC. LOL They are getting some very good advertisement. I will get a demonstration next time I buy. I think everyone is right .. it is nice to be helpful without being rude to anyone. Frances In a message dated 12/6/2008 5:58:57 P.M.

I loved it and miss it. Now use a VAIO laptop and have no problem with the Germanna website. I use Internet Explorer as well. If one would like to purchase a Mac, check your local area for the programs that you may need. I am a new member and a little surprised at the exchanges. Temper-temper. :):) Some of us aren't so computer savvy and any help is always appreciated from those that know all the little helpful hints and have the patience to deal with those of us who have problems. Til next time, Merry Christmas to all!!!!!!!!!
