While I am in the mood I taught I’d ask the Big Question because I love to hear some answers please.
Why is it so darn hard to print from a MAC computer regardless of which O/S it uses.

I thought Mac's were simple to use and without all the fiddling around as with PC's, at least that's what I've heard over the years from Mac owners. Mind you, I enjoy some of the fiddling around, but one of the main selling points of Apple products is their ease of use.

What is it that makes printing from a Mac a chore?

Ahhh...what's the real issue? I get mad at printing from PC's, too!

Well now, what an invitation to WAR is dat!
I use BOTH, or did, I just don't bother anymore, an here is the why (for me)
If a person starts out on PC and gets results, they get to looking over at the 'other side' where the grass is supposedly greener, its the lure of something BETTER, that carries that person to purchase and learn another path (Mac) to the same outcome.

The doing part, is quite different in both, I truly believe, that MANY beautiful images are made by skilled print makers using MAC.

The REAL problem as I see it is the unlearning of the PC to allow the proper learning of the MAC.

For me that is like unlearning that Guiness is good!:gig
