[QUOTE="gotdaniel, post: 765255, member: 59336"] Recently I just bought my first Mac computer (MacBook). While I am still excited over its beauty, I have tons of questions on how to set up a few things in the house. 1. I have a old external hard drive and a Belkin wireless router. How do I set it up so that I can access files in the hard drive wirelessly? Do I need the Airport Extreme Station to do that? 2. I plan to use VMware Fusion but does it require Windows XP with SP2 or does it accept any verison of Windows XP? 3. Can Iwork open Microsoft Office files or vice versa? 4. How do I connect the new MacBook to TV? I only know how to do that with the VGA cable but there is so such output on the Mac. I am a beginner in this and would appreciate your pundit advise. If the MacBook is working out for me, I think I would switch the entire house to Apple products. By the way, does Apple give out discount on December 26. If so, I might as well get a IMac. Thanks for your help :) [/QUOTE]
