I can't find any easy way to convert .wmf files on the Mac.

Thanks for the effort, Rob.

It was one of those too good to be true deals. Ah well. Maybe I can find a school that can use the disks.

There are lots of batch converter programs for converting wmf files to jpg. If somoene you know has a windows computer they can download a batch computer, convert all the wmf files to jpg than give you a disk with the jpeg files. The mac should be able to then read it with no problem.

Here is a batch wmf image converter for the mac that has a batch mode. Don't know offhand if it is free or not. [link]

At any rate google batch wmf converters for Mac.

You might try the wmf convert pro. It is one of the downloads at this address. [link]

It is a trial version, but if you are luck the limitation is time period and you can convert all the images to some other format before it expires. There is also a more general

Better yet here is a program that claims to be complete free. [link] Convert whole folder at a time just like the other one. I'm not 100% sure it handles wmf, but only one way to find out.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, I've heard good things about Zombies, Run!, but I don't have an iPhone. Does anyone know if it would be safe to run with an ipad mini (first generation)? Or will it do bad things to the...stuff? Memory? Other things?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This may be a stupid question, but do you have an Android phone? It's available for Android.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I have only a dumb phone (as opposed to a smart phone).
