How FM use impacts purchasing decisions

[Rene Stephenson]

I sort of stubbed my toe on another issue that's going to affect this: I have to be able to synch my calendar, contacts, and tasks to a PDA/SmartPhone. I'm beginning to think the only choice remaining is wait and pay more total for a MacBook and next generation of iPhone; or jump right away to get an XP laptop so that I can use Outlook with both the mobile device and laptop.

So, maybe FM is only one part of the consideration. I'm just too PC-dependent.  :o)

FM 7.x apparently works reasonably well in Crossover Linux, the
commercial development of Wine:
