Just got a MacBook, need help.

I just purchased a new macbook and so far i love it, but i have had and used PC's. So i am a little frustrated in the switch just because im trying to ajust and it is hard to adapt. The book that came with the macbook really wasnt all that descriptive, is there any tips or anything that might help me?? thanks

Is there anything in particular that is confusing you?

I would just say spend time on your computer messing around and discovering all that there is to discover. If you don't understand something... look it up on Wikipedia, they do a great job of describing Mac OS X and all that's on it.

The more time I'm on my MacBook the more I love it.

P.S. The Help feature helps... a lot.

I"m probably gonna get that book from the local bookstore soon, I love Leopard, been a long time Windows user.......this book is extremely well rated.....

i think i just need to spend more time on it. its just a little frustrating cause im not used to it. but everybody i talk to says they are hard to beat.

how do you delete things, such as items on my desktop or pictures that i dont want??

Could just drag them to the Trash or control-click- "move to trash".
Also, select the item and use "Apple" key and "Delete" together.
