Hi Graham.
I don't think there are any trainers for Mac like the trainers you can
get to Windows. Don't know why. Maybe because Mac is so easy to use?
I have only had my Macbook for a month now, and I understand your
needs for a trainer. I also felt I need a trainer before I got my Mac,
but I got a lot of help from some great friends and from this awesome
list, so now, I don't need any trainers or manuals.
If you have any questions or if you want to hear a little
demonstration how Mac works, you can contact me on MSN.
Best regards

Hi,
For a while now I've been contemplating buying a Mac and expanding
my knowledge of computing.
When I first got involved with computers seriously it was with
Windows98 and at that time having bought the pc and Jaws I used the
FS Jaws training cassettes to get me up and running and from there
kind of picked most things up as I went along.
As I'm now at the point of wanting to buy my first Macbook and never
having used one, is there somewhere I can find any documentation
similar to those old FS cassettes that will give me a grounding in
the operating system and Voice Over and how they work together?
I did walk in to an Apple store here in Manchester u.k and try
surfing the net thinking I'd pick it up especially on a site I knew
well.
It was like the men from mars had landed and taken over my computer
experience.
Not to be daunted or put off, I joined this group as I thought one
of you might have some ideas or advice to help me get up and running
without me losing any more of my hair through frustration.
Many thanks in advance of any anticipated help that might come my way.
Kind regards
Graham
