Mac Users: Strength in numbers!
For quite some time, Lotus has kinda half-heartedly supported people using Macs. Recently, they’ve gotten better about releasing products that have parity with their windows counterparts. With all of the switchers this year (myself, Declan, Wild Bill, Mr. Mooney, JonVon) and all the longtime Mac-heads (Bruce, The Captain, Ben, Turtle, Vowe) I think we are showing a considerable brain-trust going Mac.
That said, I think we need to fill the Mac sessions like never before. Overflow them. Show that there is now a substantial set of Lotus users who are Mac users only. Showing that sort of thing can help people in Lotus justify investing in Mac technologies. So, to that point, you should hit the following sessions:
- Tuesday 3:00 – 4:00 PM – ID105 – Big Mac Attack Swan 7-10
- Thursday 7:00 – 8:00 AM – Notes for Mac BOF Swan Peacock 1-2
And yes, this was posted from my Mac.

Good idea. I’ll be there. Who knows Lotus might give us a Notes Designer for Mac !

I’ll be there – I’ve just completed 48 hours without Windows launching at all and I’m happier for it. Oh for Designer and Admin…!

No doubt. Designer and Admin would be killer, but I’m not holding my breath THAT much
I’ll just be happy with the Notes 8.0.1 client, and some connectors for Quickr that work on the Mac would be HUGE!

Yeah, I went all week at Lotusphere without lighting up Parallels on my MBP, and without touching a Windows machine at all (unless the ticketing machines Southwest uses are secretly Windows).
