Hi all,

I'm very new to all this as this is my first post. I am a student and just bought a macbook pro although i've been using macs for some time now, this is my first portable machine. I am planning on taking my macbook to class and was wondering if someone could recommend a solid note taking application. I'm big into GUI so something that looks nice would be great. I'm not against paying for the application as long as there's a free trial so I know what I'm paying for.

Thanks in advanced for all the help!

Honestly I would suggest google documents since it is free, linked to your google account so you can access it where, and share you notes with your class mates.

OmniOutliner.

It actually comes on your mac.

Google docs is great and thats what I use now. The one issue (small issue) i have with it is the interface. I was looking for something that the gui looks like a notebook.

And are you sure macbook pro's come with omnioutliner? mine didn't and when i searched for it its 39.95 for the license.

Thanks for all the help!

Skye, the Omni applications no longer come with new Macs. I also miss the games we got with Tiger.

Um hum.. this application is called Notebook so...I think it's along the lines of what you are looking for.

I ran a search for this in google, here click on the top hit for a nice list.
