The recent inroads made by the Mac platform could be easily measured by the strong attendance that welcomed TransMUG’s Mac panel on November 1st at the ATA Conference. Although its number could seem confidential in that gigantic room, it’s in fact 50-some translators who were present to listen to (from left to right) Yves, Catherine, Christine, Emmanuel, and Michael, sharing personal experiences, information and tips regarding working on a Mac as a translator in a PC-centric world.
Between the strong interest shown by the professionals attending for a secure and pleasant platform, and the many shortcomings regarding Vista perceived by people on the market for a new machine, this produced a strong choir for a discussion about Macs among translators. And considering the many Macs one could already spot in the hallways of the Conference, it almost looks like most of our work has already been done, even before the panel!
The whole panel joins me to warmly thanks all who attended, stayed overtime for the questions and answers section, and came to discuss with us after-while. As promised, we are posting the PDF of the presentation that you can download here. Wishing you all good computing.
