Before I purchase a MAC OS (with no windows OS) I would like to know Can a Mac open an HTML files on any browser just like in windows? Example: an ebook that is downloaded toyour computer and is in html format that you need to open with any browser withouthaving to connect to the internet. Please let me know!

Yes..the mac has Safari built in which will handle any HTML file..whether your connected or not. You're of course free to use any other browser (just like your free to use other than explorer in windows) but you don't *have* to... Incidentally...Browsers only connect to the internet if the file's out there and need to be accessed..they're not 'always' connected, even when a window is open, but only when you're actually retrieving a file...it just seems that way, especially with modern web pages made up of over a hundred different files!

Dude! HTML can be read with a simple text editor! YES HTML works on any machine that can run a web browser. HTML is NOT machine specific(so long as MS stays away from it)

You are mixing up the capabilities of BROWSERS with the capabilities of the PLATFORM that the browsers are running on.
ANYTHING that can be done with your BROWSER on a WINJUNK machine can also be done on a MAC or any other machine. The capabilities of the BROWSER have NOTHING to do with the machine they are running on.
