Hiya,

This week I started a full time course at TAFE.  I'm doing a Certificate IV in 
Information Technology, in Web Site Design.  In short, I'm doing 12 months of 
web site development training.

I'm at the eCentral campus (ie Royal St, East Perth), and it's 100% PC there.  
I've heard that there's one Mac in a private multimedia office somewhere, but 
all intents and purposes, Macs just don't exist there.

One of my classmates, Sanda, bought her first Mac a few months ago.  She's got 
a good setup - a single processor G4/1.25 with 768 meg RAM, and an Apple 17" 
LCD screen.

But she's still pretty clueless with running it all.  She's also living on 
Austudy, which means there isn't the money to pay for one-on-one tuition.

So, the question is, what tuition or courses are available these days?  She 
needs to learn how to use the Mac in general, and also needs to get skilled in 
Photoshop, DreamWeaver, FireWorks and Flash.

Oh yeah, if anyone out there has any connections with the management or IT 
people at TAFE, please contact me!  Bugger the PCs, I'm gonna be using a 
PowerBook G4 all year but at this stage won't have internet access on campus.  
If I had the friendly ear of an understanding person there then I might have a 
chance of getting permission to use an ethernet cable somewhere, or even set up 
my own AirPort Base Station.


Regards,
Phil
