It was tough!

I didnt even open the manual lol

I am reading now on lots of issue with the screen on the 20. Im not really seeing this. Did some googling and didnt see that they changed it in the new line of IMacs? Anyone have info on this?

Congrats mate and welcome to the Family. Since the day i bought the MBP my ThinkPad T60 has not be powered on. However I only have Ubuntu 8.04 on it and not Windows.

Check out the 300 new features in Leopard
http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/300.html

One thing I recently realized is Spotlight is very powerful I can search anything and everything I want in there. It even does some basic mathematical functions for me.

If you dont know what i am talking about, click on the top right corner of your screen where it shows the magnifying glass, a blue small box will open with a search textbar, type 23456*65 and it will tell you 1524640. sweeeeet
