"No, iLife comes with a mac...."Most OEMs include MS Works (or provide it as an option) if purchasing one with Windows considerring it only costs them ~$10 which allows for word processing, spreadsheets, etc. Aside from that, one can easily use a free alternative such as Open Office. One can always use Windows Live services which includes pretty much everything iLife includes for no additional cost.

No Problem. But to be fair, if you were in a business, you'd hardly use iWeb to make your companies website or the amatures at home would mock the companies professionalism lol, use dreamweaver or something comlex if you want a real website

Whether its more popular is not the question, if ive got a business, I dont want my website to be a bebo page do i?And photoshop is not a photo library, even if it was it is available on mac.Internet is connected, I thought it may be avg's server, so I'm waiting to see if its that, hopefully it is, im out of ideas, tried the other things you mentioned.Thanks for your help

Social Networking is more popular - hence your site on Bebo or Myspace will get more views more frequently.iPhoto and Photoshop both edit pictures and add effects. But Photoshop still allows me to do as much as iPhoto. GIMP is a free alternative, there are many free alternatives for PC, but very few for Mac.

What are you on about, photoshop and iphoto are completely diferent prgrammes, im a graphic designer and use it every day. And all the other prgrammes you are on about arnt free for a pc. iWeb and social networking sites are also completely different things. You get free web sppace when you buy a mac, and you can make a website with iweb and publish it straight to the website

Ok, for one second I'll put aside our opinions.- Ask her about her ISP (Internet Service Provider) and see if they are having problems.- Check the internet connection to make sure it is connected and that a light is showing.- Ensure that AVG is not having server problems.- Make sure in the connection has not been disabled accidently, even if it is plugged in. If it is, enable it.- If her internet uses cable, try unplugging it from the source and re-plugging it after 20 seconds.

So what does iLife have for me today?iMovie - I use Cyberlink PowerDirector, I can do anything, even green-screen editing. iMovie does not do this.iPhoto - I use Adobe Photoshop. iPhoto is not comparible.iWeb - I can create websites without even using software. I use more popular social networking sites.iDVD - PowerDirector can do everything this can do too, so why bring out more shit?Garage Band - I use Cubase, Reason and FL Studio to make better music.

That's because AVG Anti-Virus is shit.Get something worth it, like BitDefender, Kaspersky Internet Security, or ESET NOD32 - Possibly the strongest Anti-Virus available.AVG always has problems. Complaining about freeeware that isn't doing it's job is not Microsofts problem.

No but Mac users often see this.Your computer needs to be restarted. Press the restart button, or hold in the power button for several seconds.This message appears in three languages on a black screen of death. Yes, Mac does crash.
