Another Switcher Who's A Virgin to Mac

DaveMyles · Aug 1, 2006

Well I just bought my new MacBook online today and I'm fareaking pumped. The only thing I'm worried about is the wait time. It seems like a lot of you fine people have had to wait a lot longer then estimated ship and delivery times. I mean I don't really care how long it takes, just as long as I get to put my hands on a real computer. I've been trying to do as much research about OS X and I'm looking to buy a good book on it. Any ideas? :mac:

Any missing manual books are great reads. They flow very well, you can pick them up and read them all the way through or return to them with specialized questions once you get your mac.

Hope that helps, I know I did a lot of reading waiting for my computer to come in :black:

Actually my wait time has been far shorter than what I have been told.
Exactly 5 days earlier to be precise.

I got my computer a few days before it was supposed to be here.
