Herb:

FYI, I contacted Brother and they do NOT have software for use with
Macs.   Embrilliance, which I heard is Mac compatible, does not have
any digitizing capabilities although they DID indicate that they hope
to have "something" out this year.  Guess I'm sticking with PE!

Can you make any recommendations as far as digitizing software?  I've
dabbled with PE Design and have made a few original designs, but they
take me FOREVER and are never quite what I have in mind.  You are the
master.  Any advice?

Happy Holidays!

Your Gal Al
