Hi, Reunion is for Macs as well? Wow, didn't realise that and I've heard great stuff about it. Thanks I'll look into it. Re: Intel Chip. You can only run Windows programmes of this type of Mac if you have a version of Windows installed. That was something I didn't really want to do. Sorry, I'm a die hard Mac fan which comes through being a graphic designer. Thanks for your help though - and please feel free to keep posting! Rebecca x

I've got Reunion, which I have no complaints about. I got it just before Christmas and I'm still going. It will let you print in a number of different formats - the semi-circle tree, the traditional tree, the one that shows your direct ancestors going backwards. Also, if you don't know a person's year or place of birth, or a woman's maiden name, it doesn't matter. If you only knew she was called Susannah, born 1812 in Lancashire, for example, you can just put that in. It calculates the age at death automatically and in one format you can print a family tree report that will tell you exactly how old a person was (years and days) at marriage, at death etc. It came to £72.50 (I think that was with postage and packaging, too).

Hi all Mac users! I need to download a family tree programme for my INTEL MAC G5 so that I can start to record all my findings at home. Does anyone have any recommendations? I've heard about 'iFamily' but is this the only one available for us Mac users?? Any idea on prices would be great as well. Any help will be grately appreciated. Cheers Rebecca
