Lines: 24 Hi. My cousin is interested in buying a computer system so she can start learning computers in the business world. I (being a Mac person) have sorta convinced her to get a Macintosh (actually, she's basically leaving all the product decisions to me). Sure, I know the hardware fairly well, and I know some of the basic software, but cousin Sylv ain't gonna need to deal with the specs on MacRecorder, TML Pascal III, or MPW, and I don't know what software the Real World uses in business. Cousin Sylv's a financial analyst, so I need software recommendations that apply to this field. Anything, suggestions, ideas, would be appreciated. Please email responses to roger@caen.engin.umich.edu. THANKS. Roger Espinosa roger@caen.engin.umich.edu
