time I have had access to a support person and complained about something
I needed to "right click" to do on the dell, but couldn't figure out how
to do on the darned Mac the guy would show me the Mac way and it would be
even easier.

Easy solution to that: buy a non-Apple mouse. If you buy a "normal" mouse right-clicking works just fine on a Mac. I use a Logitech Bluetooth cordless.


Biggest problem we have with the macs is just compatibility when the
students need to work on a project in one room... "Can I borrow your
computer to type this Mrs. McGhee?" then they don't finish it, try to
take it to the next class and things get screwy when they switch over to
the Microsoft.  I also prefer to do my Powerpoint programs on my Dell
since the projector people at most conferences have a terrible time
messing up the Mac presentations.

That's what Parallels is for (lets you run Windows; the current version runs the Windows app right on your Mac desktop without even having a "Windows" window showing).
