I just ordered a macbook pro 2.5ghz 4gb RAM, 250 5400 HD. I am very excited.
I am also keeping my windows based laptop (mainly for software that they don't make for mac). I am buying a portable external harddrive which is compatible with both mac and windows so I was planning on storing my 10,000+ pictures and also my music on there so depending on what computer I'm on I can switch that stuff around.
I have been reading a lot of bad reviews about iphoto organizing a lot of files...should I just keep my photo managing to piscasa(which i love) until there is a version made for mac?
Also:
Best web browser to use?
Best AIM program?
Best DVD copying program?
Any other programs worth getting that are freeware?? I did read somewhere a program that works with spotlight that is supposed to be really good...what is it called and what is so great about it??
Any other help would be great! I'm real excited about getting the MBP in the mail!
