Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sawday" data-source="post: 376305" data-attributes="member: 22882">Just ordered a new iMac for my son's eighteenth birthday (Lucky devil - can't afford to make the switch myself just yet!).  Bearing in mind that he's a teenager and 'knows everything' he'll want to start playing with it and will never get around to reading any instructions that come with it. I'm a bit concerned that might just get into a bit of a mess or even seriously screw things up if he is not organised.  Never having touched a mac I won't be able to help him much and he never listens to me anyway so guys can anyone give me a simple bullet-point list of immediate essentials that he should do with a brand new machine.  I'm thinking particularly about creating accounts (user/administrator etc) rather than downloading software (his imac won't have internet acces to begin with - wireless network comes with my own imac later in the year).</blockquote>
