[QUOTE="mac57, post: 358840, member: 17052"] Hi Chris, and Welcome!! May I suggest that you make a conscious choice to undertake what I call "full Mac immersion" for a bit? Let me explain: The Mac will feel really different. So, I recommend that new Mac owners consciously decide to go for "full Mac immersion" for a period of month or so. What is "full Mac immersion"? It is trying to do EVERYTHING "the Mac way" for a while until you get over the fact that it is just different from "the Windows way". Consciously decide to seek out and use the "Mac way" of doing any thing that you are trying to do. This will force you to break the Windows paradigm you are thinking in, and allow you to enjoy and understand the full Mac experience. As an example, Safari is a very good browser. Force yourself to use it. Don't just reflexively download and use Firefox because you are used to it. A month or so later you can sit back, having now experienced both ways of doing things, and start making decisions about how you really want to approach the world. In my case, I did just this, and found that I pretty much completely discarded the old Windows way of doing things. Life IS better on the Mac side. [/QUOTE]
