[QUOTE="muso, post: 5928, member: 40"] Welcome to the forums, jon :) 1) Yes there are file sharing networks. No, you shouldn't pirate. None are very reliable anyway. 2) You can't put a CD with a game on it you used in a PC and run it on a mac. A macintosh version requries a complete overhaul and recompile of the entire application for it to be able to be run on OSX. 3) Yes. 4) If you buy applecare then you get 3 years (I think) of tech support direct from apple, plus repairs for anything that could ever go wrong. However, this is, in my opinion, hideously overpriced :) For support, you can come here or go to one of the many forums like this one, visit the apple knowledge base (get there through the apple site) or visit your local Apple dealer. 5) I take it you are considering buying an iMac. Go here: [dead link removed] If you're wanting a briefer list, here you go: iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, iTunes, QuickTime, iCal, iChat, iSync, DVD Player, AppleWorks, Mac OS X Mail, Quicken 2003 Deluxe, World Book 2003 Edition, Mac OS X Chess, Otto Matic, Deimos Rising and Sound Studio.
