Hey all,
I'm not a switcher, just an "expander"... I've been using PC's for years, and figured I'd add a Mac to my collection. I'm not going to switch entirely to Mac, but I'd like to at least have some experience on one. After scoring a G4 from a surplus sale at a local college for $100, I'm kinda at a loss because I don't know how to do the common things I take for granted on a PC.
My question is, is there any FAQ or guide online that you guys could suggest that would make my learning curve a little easier? I'm an MCSE, so preferably it wouldn't be "Introduction to the Keyboard" level. I'm looking for something practical that provides a good "transitional" explaination, and explains analogues between the two.
Also, one last thing... how do you access shared drives on another computer in OS X? I tried just typing "\\192.168.1.1" into Safari, hoping that it would work like it does in Windows and bring up shared folders on the other PC, but no luck.
Thanks in advance!
