I am in the process of researching before I make the switch to mac. I have a lot of questions. Some Newbie and some more advanced. So please forgive the stupid questions.
What is the best books for a new-advanced OS X user to have?
How good is Virtual PC & will I be able to play my Windows games? (starcraft, UT, MOO2, CS, etc....) And Other Windows Apps? And/Or are there Native OS X version out there? Have they ever created a new version of marathon?
What are some the the basic utilities/software I will need to get off the net and purchase? IE: Winzip, Ghost, Nero, photoshop, disk defragmenter, Antivirus, teleport, omnipage, quicken, etc....
Has anyone tried the Staroffice for OSX Beta, and how does it compair to other OSX Office suites? I really don't want to give any more money to M$.
How easy it to connect to M$ Shares and to share files with M$ pc's?
Is there a MS terminal server client for OS X?
How easy is it to get BSD/Linux programs to work under OS X? And Will I have to completely rewrite them?
Where is a good source of white-papers concerning security and OS X?
Multiple user, Can I set up different users with different access levels?
OS X Server, How good is it?
Mac Certifications for OSX. IS there any demand for them and are they worth anything more than the toilet-paper they are printed on? IE MCSE
What else Should I know before I make the Switch?
