[Ti] MS dropping Office for Mac

[Mohit Bhansali]

What about Mac usage from corporate attorneys?  I have
heard of attorneys - but don't know any - that use
Macs.  They are all litigators.  Have yet to come
across one that specializes in corporate work that
also uses a Mac.  I wouldn't think that there are
cross-discipline issues where a particular type of
legal practice favors Macs and another type doesn't?

Cheers,
Mo

Arguing with a lawyer may not be the most effective, 
or pleasurable, pastime.
Often the best persuasion is not argument, but subtle 
example--
demonstrate the evidence and let the jury make the 
right a conclusion.

Lawyers tend to be conservative, and sometimes wish to

follow a crowd.
I well remember a computer consultant who, in 1984, 
advised a seminar
(of attorneys it happens) to simply see what most 
other people were buying and
then get the same. A guaranteed formula for average 
performance.

However, many lawyers spend a lot of time with words, 
and are often
not technically oriented. Given an easy experience, a 
decent number of
attorneys recognize that the Mac may be an optimal 
platform for attorneys.
The Mac makes easier for an attorney to deliver well 
above average performance.
That can translate into happier clients, persuaded 
judges.

MacLaw has a nice website and list, supports attorneys

using Macs.
Our own MacGuide has for over a decade promoted Macs 
for attorneys and
other reasonable people.
