[QUOTE="Erieg, post: 694936, member: 40158"] I purchased a macbook a week ago. I wanted a change from windows and I figured OS X would be better then Linux. I think the thing that is getting to me the most is the heavy reliance on keyboard commands. It seems like most every post I read says "to do X press X,Y & Z". What happened to Mac being the platform of "point & click"? It was even suggested by several people that I go buy a book to learn how to use the computer... excuse me?? I thought Macs were designed for the masses, not the geeks. Heck, I haven't bought a computer book since I learned UNIX in college. I do love the hardware though. I will give it another week to see if I start getting more comfortable with it. If I don't, back to the store it goes. [/QUOTE]
