HI WILL,
WHEN YOU SET UP YOUR MAC, YOU CREATED AN APPLE ID.

No, it isn't offtopic; we've been discussing it on and off onlist
every since iTunes became more accessible.
As far as I know, you can't yet create your own account on the Mac.
Your choices are:
1. If you have an apple id already, you don't need to create it;
you just need to sign in which unfortunately involves reviewing the
account which you also can't do on the Mac. the good news is once
the account has been either created or reviewed signing in and
buying will be accessible.
2. If you have a Windows machine, you can download iTunes and can
then create or review your account on windows; a little tricky but
possible. At least I did the review account (see archives).
3. You may be able on the Apple website to create an account either
via the apple store or mac.com. I don't think you can create the
iTunes account specifically on the Apple website but I could be
wrong. However, getting an apple id one way or another works for
the iTunes account. At least it would be created.
4. If you have sighted help (I will go and wash out my mouth with
soap after writing that phrase--sorry!!1), get that person to do
the creation and/or review for you.
Remember: the good news is that once this is done, both
authorization of your computer and sign-in are accessible. so is
buying.
hth.
