[QUOTE="baggss, post: 976023, member: 6762"] The other real difference is that Windows programs will use an exe to install an App, so I get how it can be confusing. [i]SOME[/i] Mac Apps will use an .app to install a program (interestingly MS Office for the Mac give you the drag and drop or installs program options) but simply dragging and dropping from the disc or disc image is a much easier way to do things. It's also why most Mac apps simply require you to drag them to the trash to uninstall. [/QUOTE]
