Hey guys, this is my first post in the forums after switching from a 15 year PC streak, and i have to say....so far so good.
I got a new macbook yesterday and can't keep my hands off it! I guess these first few weeks will have me looking for mac equivalent apps and getting used to the interface, but i'm already loving the fact that i'm now part of a much smaller shiney white community.
Anyway, i have two quick questions;
Firstly, i was an avid user of office back in my windows days (like last week), but don't have a life threatening need to find something similar for the mac so i'm willing to try new suites. Is there a dominant office like suite in the mac world? or are email clients, word processors etc things that are worth hand picking individually. I'd appreciate some guideance on great email clients etc, if indead there are any that better the ones that have come with my macbook!
Secondly....do macs do desktop shortcuts? lol (thats a serious questions btw)
Thanks in advance, Ben.
