Hey I was recently re-watching one of the videos I saw that made me want a mac so bad, but I wanted to know how the guy did some of the stuff.

Video- http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...ort+tiger+demo



at 29 seconds he opens something that allows him to launch safarie.

At :29, he brings up a free program called QuickSilver.

At 1:34 he pushes Command+Option+8, which is for the seeing impaired. You can then press Command+Option+Plus/Minus to zoom in and out.

At 2:24 he starts a Finder image slideshow, select the files you want to see, right click and click Start Slideshow. From there you can view them as an Index sheet or add them to iPhoto.

Yes, Macs are amazing.

Another great feature that you didn't catch is at 1:28. He presses Command+Shift+4+Spacebar to take a picture of the window he was viewing. After trying to take a screenshot in Windows, this is one of the best features of OSX.
