Email and Web Hosting

Research Notes:

• Mac Mail is synced with Address Book, iCal and other programs
  
• Entourage may work better with work email
  
• For Yahoo! POP, must have a Yahoo! Plus email account which costs $20/year. Gmail offers free POP service.
  
• Mozilla Thunderbird offers a third option, but since I already have two programs, might as well use what I've got.
  
• Probably just look into personal home network that supports time machine and a network printer. Possibly one with NAS capability (Mirra). Don't necessarily want software that automatically syncs all network computers. Can do that on my own and don't want business to mix with home usage.
  
• For web hosting, .mac account seems reasonable at $100/year. Can use own URL and supports email, blogs, etc. using iWeb.
  
• Look into Google Apps
