[QUOTE="DrQuincy, post: 289628, member: 22571"] Turn the genie effect on for window minimising / maximising and set the doc to animate. I've got mine set up like that and I can drop jaws with a 60 second demo: - Open up a few windows then minimise one - Ctrl + F9 a couple of times to show off Expose - Press F11 a couple of times to show the windows moving in and out - Press F12 to bring up dash board - Click the + - Drag a widget onto the desktop - Press F12 to close Dashboard - Do Apple + Escape to bring up Front Row - Play around in Front Row with your remote - Do Apple + Escape to go back to the desktop That's pretty much my minute demo of my Mac. It shows them next to nothing about the real advantages of OS X but I've had plenty of so-called Mac haters walking away thinking, I want one of those. Further to that show them how quick it is to make your Mac goto sleep and then wake up again. Also, if you have the 17" Macbook Pro go to the Apple website and fire up a few 1080p film trailers in Quicktime (you can't quite watch it at its native res and you need Pro to play in fullscreen). Watch their faces when they see the detail - it really is a sight to behold (then tell them their PC will need at least a 3.0Ghz dual core processor to play it back as well). [/QUOTE]
