It has many advantages, such being great for quick prototyping. Just don't waste time trying to use FM as a web backend, 'cuz that gets ugly quick. A Mac user can fulfill that need with MySQL/PHP (or PostgresSQL/PHP) just fine. I know of at least two options for doing this: 1) OS X 2) using one of the Linux distros for Mac (ex. LinuxPPC, YellowDogLinux, SuSe) Both options are very cheap to try, and offer slightly different advantages, so no harm in trying out both. Plan on setting aside 1GB or so for a Linux partition, for which you get a dual-boot Mac--giving you all the advantages of Mac PLUS all the advantages of Linux in one box. Not bad, eh? -- CC
