Hi all, I just purchased a new macbook, something I have always wanted but couldn't afford. I am running into a few issues though and I am hoping someone can help me out with.
The first problem I am having is with flipping to different windows (programs). This is a fairly simplistic thing so I must be missing something. Unlike windows, there is no tool bar to quickly pop the needed window up. I read where I can use option+Tab but why in the world would I need to use key commands to do some thing so simple? On that note, while I was searching the forums to see if I could find the answer to do this, I keep running into replies to questions being "press x,x,x". I really don't want to have to memorize key commands. Is the Mac totally dependant on them?
Second, do macbooks support duel screens (an external monitor used in conjunction with the macbook display)?
Last question is about web browsers. I have grown totally dependant on tabs. Safari is driving me nuts. Since MS doesn't make an IE for Mac any longer is there one that you recommend? I tried Fire fox but is was slow.
