I think it's a no-brainer to say that there is more software in the
peecee world ... for ham radio, but we are here to hear about and work
with what's available for the Mac. If I wanted to work with peecees
I'd do it, but I don't and I am not here to hear about what's available
in the peecee world. There are many other places to do that. If
someone does not like the Mac platform or they can't live with the
software then they should go somewhere else. I am not totally blind to
the rest of the computer world (this is not my first computer) and I
think most others are not either.
