Hello! this is my first post on here, although i have been reading these forums for just over a week now, and they're ace!

So, a couple of days ago i recieved a brand spanking new MacBook Pro (see profile specs) from the online UK Apple Store. I have used Windows based PC's for years now, but decided to make the switch and get me a Mac for University this year! I am studying Graphic Arts, and decided that as the Uni use Mac's, then i should get one and get started early!

OSX is AMAZING! so easy to use, and i have found the change so far to be quite easy, although i still find myself going to the top right of a window to 'x it off', haha!

I'm not actually on the internet on the Mac yet, as i need to get all the cables and stuff, and i will be using internet in my halls and in uni in Sept.

So, i just thought i would post and express my excitement and positive thoughts and energies on my new 'tool'!


Thanks, i look forward to posting and reading these forums in the future!

Welcome to Mac Forums and to the world of the Mac and OSX.

I too sometimes still after years sometimes when I am in a hurry still try to click the x on the right hand side instead of the left. Windows is part of my job so I have to work with it still. If I never had to use Windows again I don't think I would ever click the oposite side. :spook:

Anyway, if we can ever be of help to you, please ask.

Enjoy that new Mac!!
