I've been out of the Mac loop since Systems 6 & 7, so I have some catching up to do. :dive:
If anyone can help me with these questions and/or point me to FAQs and more info I would really appreciate the assistance.
1.
When my 12" iBook arrives from Apple next week, what version of OS X can I expect to see on it?
2.
Does the Mac OS have an automatic update tool over the web like Windows Update does?
3.
Is it true that I can print directly to PDFs without any 3rd party software?
4.
What are some of the absolutely most useful pieces of freeware, utilities, etc. that are "must-haves"?
5.
Are all the usual UNIX utilities really included w/ OS X?
6.
I ordered mine w/ the 80GB HD and 256MB RAM, if I plan to add another 512MB in a few weeks, is that likely sufficient? No photoshop work or games. Just some light image editing and plenty of office type apps.
7.
Do you guys use OpenOffice? Is there something better?
8.
Safari or Firefox?
9.
What am I not even thinking to ask about?
Pointers to more info much appreciated.
Thanks in advance and have a great day!
Chris
