Welcome, Jason.

You should install “quicksilver” for the mac –

and get your ichat working as well.

You’re suddenly much smarter than you were before.

Check out “textmate”. If you do lots of coding, you’ll love it. The dude who wrote it doesn’t charge much for the license… it’s worth it in my opinion.

Dude. Whatever you want to know. Just ask.

Oh, and the command key is your best friend.

OOOOOOOOOOoooooooOOOO!

See, you can do things like that with a MacBook. Though mine = NOT the Pro. Whatevs.

So! Welcome! You actually don’t need to know how to do ANYTHING, because it’s all intuitive. [ahem] Except the ejecting part. And yes, Safari sucks. I actually use the mail function, whatever it’s called. I have no idea why. I LOVE the search feature. So fast! I have no idea how to burn a DVD that will work in my DVD player. I know stuff about *cough* BitTorrent-type stuff, and have software thoughts. iChat is kind of lame. And I hope you have really really good eyesight, because everything becomes quite tiny. Which leads to typos.

My MacBook is full of cat hair and crumbs and stuff. You eventually get over that kind of thing, though you will want a cushy (red) sleeve for it and people will envy you because of it.

It’s totally worth it.

Also! Do you have a free trial of a Mac account? I wasn’t going to pay for it but I did and I’m glad for that. You get to do cool things and Mac Mail seems like it’s a pain in the ass at first, but I actually rather like it. And if you get a Mac account, you can save things to your iDisk or whatever it’s called.

Sometimes I wonder if mine needs a playmate. Is it lonely without me, I wonder? Probably. Extra hugs later, I’m sure.

Hello, fellow member of All Things Fantastic! Welcome!! I bought mine in April and I swear to God, I almost threw up when I gave her my debit card. HOLY CROW. So now, there are rules. No eating or drinking near it. It goes in a safe place. A safe, velveteen place. Mozilla downloaded with No Script ensures it’s crap free and all that. It’s a spyware virgin. If you don’t know about the Mozilla/No Script thing, check it out. I wouldn’t have a compy without using it. Safari sucks, IMO, but I wasn’t a Mac user before. Let me know if you have questions. I love, love, LOVE mine. Enjoy making sweet love to yours and spooning it at night.
