He had a plastic shell on it so the actual MBP was super clean after I removed it. Did a fresh reload – totally wiped the hard drive first and now it's running perfectly. Just looking for good software I can download for free. Not sure what is available for the Mac. Yes - got the latest version of the iLife software. Probably use both the Mac and Windows. Wife and I are using the laptop and my main pc is now running Win 7 too. I updated it last week. The desktop has my hardcore software on it. My main email, Office, Visio, QuickBooks Pro, Graphics software, etc. and I think it will stay that way as I am not going to repurchase all that software for the Mac. Using the Mac in my man cave for browsing and some email plus just getting to know it better. In regards to OS X vs Win 7, there exactly the same, there just totally different. :-) [/QUOTE]
