[QUOTE="jjyank, post: 1004585, member: 106029"] Thanks for the responses so far. In regards to the software suggestions, are these programs that I can get loaded at the store upon request? Or are these things I will need to purchase/download separately? My whole life I have pretty much gone to the same family-owned local PC store for both my purchases and repairs. My Dell laptop came pretty much pre-loaded with the essentials I had asked for, things like MS Office, anti-virus/spyware/adware programs, etc. Because of this limited exposure, I'm not sure how exactly the process works when I get to the Apple Store. Since I already know what I want to get (15'' MBP) does one of the employees work with me to figure out what to pre-load on the Mac and whatnot? Or would it be better to configure my Mac on the apple.com site? [/QUOTE]
