Guys, thank you so much for all of the great info.
I just bought a MacBook (2.2GHz, 1GB, 120GB HD), because my old Dell has become almost impossible to use. What do I have to do - or is there anything I CAN do - to get my Mac compatible with the training CD's?
I'd prefer to purchase software for my Mac than attempt to get my Dell fixed, buy a new Dell, or use the hotel/training center computers... Is this possible? Has anyone successfully used a MacBook during training?
Thanks!

My laptop has seen better days and I'm in the market for a new one. I'm considering a move to mac format with the new lightweight efficient "Macbook Air". I've been a PC user but do have another mac. I'm just curious whether the "Air" will fill the needs.
Thanks by the way for all of the Indoc info so far...it is really appreciated!

"Seems like a bit more military than normal in this class, from a glance at where they were from."
From what I've heard/seen, DAL is definately leaning towards Mil guys. Something about feedback from the school house and training captains.

If you get a head start on the issue when you receive your CDs the first week, then you will probably be fine. I waited until midway through week 2 and wish I had figured out sooner that there was a problem.
I would not count on the hotel/training center computers for much except occasionally printing out a form.

Could have been. And if so, I apologize for going balistic! Seen this FAR TOO MANY TIMES on this sight. I do, however, support the bulk of the text that was written. Unfortunately, this is the wrong thread to post that on. "There's two LL's in BALLISTIC boys!"

You probably don't even have a college degree and YOU ARE the reason our profession has gone down the ********er. Oh well, keep on walking around the terminals with your jacket unbuttoned, you're IPOD earphones in, and in general, looking like an unprofessional piece of *******. Keep on pulling our industry down with you. In the end, I only hope the rest of us can pull together, keep SCOPE in check, and never give ******bags like you the time of day!!! Good luck buddy!
