[QUOTE="James, post: 90966, member: 7582"] Hey everybody!!! On a whim I decided to ditch my PC and I bought a 17" iMac G5. It should be in next week! I'm a little nervous about switching, but was wondering, when I get it what is the first program or app I should install?? Thanks, Holly. ********************** Congratulations on your purchase, I think you are really gona like the imac G5, my wife loves hers. No need to be nervous, OS X is very easy to use and you will find it to be quite stable and able to do what you want to do. The software that comes with the iMac G5 should give you most of what you will need, so play with it for awhile and see if it meets your needs, don't go rushing off to download every program you see. Some recomendations are: Comes with Other Safari - web browser Fire Fox Mail - Email Thunder Bird iChat - Chat program Fire iTunes - Music Can't beat iTunes... iPhoto - Photo album Don't know Two others i would recommend are Open Office word processor suite and Gimp graphics editor. Both great programs and FREE... [/QUOTE]
