My home network has two macs and one windows computers on it. My
son, a computer geek, did all the research for me and chose PC
MacLan. I cannot remember the reason that he ruled out Dave but it
did not involve price, it had to do with the way it worked. I am
sorry I cannot remember the reason but I have the PC MacLan and it
works well.
I am using MacOS 8.6 and 9.22 and WindowsXP
It installed and worked with no problems. I do not have a single complaint.
I don't know what software you are/will be using but, Microsoft
Office does not need any conversion software nor do Adobe products -
at least the ones I use.
Hope this helps.
