Have you ever felt like a Mac user in a Windows world? Well, you don't have to feel like an outsider anymore. Steve explains ways to run those Windows based programs on your Mac. He looks at an Apple utility called Bootcamp, which allows your Mac to boot in both the Mac OS and in Windows. He describes how running Windows in Native mode on your Mac will bypass the Mac OS altogether, and virtually turn your computer into a Windows machine. Steve then introduces Parallels, the runaway leader in the Windows' emulation market. Not only will it run all your PC programs, it will also enable you to switch between your Windows and Mac programs, such as all the iLife applications. If you don't need to run a lot of Windows applications, the Parallels solution allows you to have the best of both worlds in a way that's elegant, practical and proven.

Steve also looks at the HP Smart Web Print Utility, a great, free way to eliminate wasted paper when printing from web pages. If you've ever been frustrated by those additional almost blank pages and printouts that bleed off the page, then this application will prove to be a smart way to print either entire pages, or a collection of snippets, from the web.
