just bought an imac

Well i am completely new to macs. I went to the local apple store a little while ago and picked up a 17" imac. So far I think it is great but still just learning how to use osx. I like the fact that I dont really have to worry about viruses with mac.

You won't regret it, congrats!

Take care,

Welcome.

Learning the OS is probably the most difficult part. Once you use it for a couple of days you will eventually get the hang of it. It's not hard after that. Welcome again!

Congratulations!
Here are two tips I thought were the most important:
NEVER rename your home folder and be careful when dragging a subfolder into another folder where a folder with the same name exists (OS X is not copy and merge like XP but copy and REPLACE!). If you're not careful there is a risk you could lose valuable data.

Well, I think those were the most important things to know as a switcher!
Have fun with your mac!
