One would think so, in theory. In practice, Rogers doesn't support any Mac platform. Not that their service won't run on a Mac -- I've had them for about five years now, and it works as well as any other I've had -- but although they'll send someone out to hook it up for you and get it working (for a price), you're pretty much on your own from there on in. Call with a problem and it's a crap shoot whether you can find anyone who knows or cares enough about the Mac system to help you. And although Rogers will constantly bombard you with e-mails offering you their latest free anti-spam and anti-virus software, and urging you to use their free Website-building software, you find when you go to take them up on it that all those freebies work strictly on Windows. That said: ? Every now and then you'll reach a support techie who really does know his Mac stuff and isn't too busy to help you out; ? The actual service provision is pretty much bullet-proof, so once you're set up there really shouldn't be that many problems for their support staff; ? The new cable modems they supply have a nifty security feature that lets you isolate your computer from the web at the touch of a button, but regain access instantly at a second touch. Also, give a thought to going wireless. With your cable modem hooked into that neat little Airport transmitter, you won't need to care any more how close your computer is to the television. You'll be able to pick it up and use it anywhere you like. And if there's a lightning storm and your surge arrestor fails, you risk losing only a $150 Airport base, rather than a $2,000 computer. --- Hawk <taylorc547@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Actually I also have netscape installed Doug, just never use it > anymore. > Other than this mail problem I see no reason to move to OSX.
