Mark, if your lawyer uses a Mac, she is a solo practitioner talking only to
herself. Seventy percent of my practice is counseling lawyers and law firms
on legal ethics and professional responsibility matters. I do not recall a

technology-challenged guy but if I understand correctly, these run on
Windows, not on Mac.
