I need a new laptop, my former model having suffered an accident while crossing a river in Ethiopia the other week. I know, I know...
Anyway, I was thinking about getting a macbook. The only thing is I'm working as a writer at the moment and have been hired to spend the whole of next year writing a book. So, what's the story with word processing?
I looked at the Microsoft stuff but Office is 600 quid and Word itself is 300. I'd use the Apple stuff but I'd probably need cross-compatibility for emailing to editors etc. And I'm very comfortable with Word at this stage.
Anywhere I can get it cutprice?
The Apple seems reliable which is why I'm attracted. That true?
Any advice much appreciated.
It seems I only ever use Thumped these days to get IT help....
