I'm ddicted to Corel but alas not with my apple mac arghh!!!!!!! Why and When?
Please please please - I've moved from PC to Mac after 15 years intensively using it daily on a PC.
I use CDX3 on a PC at work but am unable to use it at all at home! I was forced to buy some Adobe Indesign & AI stuff but AI just does not cut it!
Please will Corel move back to us Apple users? if not how can i use X3? on my intel imac (without soiling it with windows)
I'd pay double for Corel on the mac!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone concur?

Are you unbalanced? The Mac isn't worth what you pay for it let alone double for the software. I'm going through hell with a MAC set up right now having to run 3 different versions of the operating system to support hardware/software. I hope Apple get out of the computer business.
Apple on the computer industry is more than a trademark, it's a feeling, something like Ferrari on car world, like Harley-Davidson on motorcycles, like CorelDRAW on vector graphics. Don't ask if Honda is faster than Harley-Davidson, the simple sound of the engine is different and special. In the same way, an iPhone is not "just another phone", and one iPod is not "just another MP3 player". Other manufacturers try to emulate Apple as far is possible (including Windows) Also, a Mac is not "just another computer", not only because you can use 32 Gb of RAM, also it's a beautiful design, when soem people see a Mac just say "Wooooow!!!" When people use a Mac feel pleasure and satisfaction. But the most important thing: it's a powerful computer, with a good an stable operating system. Make no mistake ourselves, or think "if I do not use it, it's not good".

Hi.
Well I surely wasn't debating the awesomeness of the Mac itself. It is a truly great machine I'm sure.
The argument I was touching on was being a die hard CorelDraw user, and having an extra "cheap" machine just to run it. Just the synchronization would be a hassle, not to mention impeding the speed of your work flow.
For many, besides having more cdr files than are possibly countable, and the CorelDraw program being a center hub of their business and life...well the choice is to simplify.

I don't say wow when I see an Apple or even a bad ass PC for that matter. Computers without the user are worthless. I say WOW! when I see what a user can do with it. I've seen some very powerful users use crap computers and with it they could run circles around a novice user on a power machine.
