Welcome aboard. I got my first Mac (MacBook) about a month ago & have loved very minute of the switcher experience. If you're totally new to Mac, you might wanna check out some of the tutorial videos Apple has on their website. I found some of them to be pretty helpful for getting an overall feel for my new baby & what it can do.

Good luck, and I hope the time passes quickly 'til the 20th. :D

This forum is a great resource for Switcher questions (hence the name), so just know that we'll be here when you need us.

There can be a lot of information overload when you switch so it's better to just read the basics and then learn things as you go. For the most part there are a lot of similarities between Mac and Windows especially since Microsoft has a habit of copying Apple. ;)

You'll learn the differences as you use your new Mac and of course you can always ask on this forum. If you do want to do some more pre-learning you can go to Apple's Switch 101 tutorials.

Welcome to Mac and enjoy your stay! :)
