The Macintosh isn't just our favorite subject matter at Low End Mac, it's one of our tools of the trade.
We write on Macs, access the Web on Macs, read email on Macs, run our
favorite applications on Macs, and customize them to make our Macs the
best tools for the work and games we're involved in.
Tools of the Trade gives us the opportunity to showcase our own
computing solutions: the harware we use, which version of the Mac OS
we're living with, what favorite applications and utilities help us get
the job done, which peripherals we wouldn't be caught dead without, and
the other things that make our Macs our Macs.
