Hello Everyone, Well, I took a few baby steps today. Not as many as I had hoped but enough to make me even more glad I decided to take a walk with the white cat.
1. I customized my desktop and setup Safari to launch on my preferred home page. 2. I setup and configured iTunes so that it and my Windows computers are all now sharing the same media library. 3. I configured the startup setting options and created some new accounts and configured some network workgroups. 4. I setup my Verizon Wireless Air card so that I can have access to the Net when I'm out and about. Yes, this was the first third-party app I've installed on my Mac. It went well, a little confusing but I suspect that had more to do with Verizon Wireless than the Mac OS. 5. I ran the Boot Camp utility and installed Windows 7. I only used 32 gigs for Windows 7 as I do not intend to use this machine as a Windows computer until I gain much, much more experience using the Mac OS. I installed it for the experience of doing so and so I may assist others in the future. I was impressed that the Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD came with all of the correct drivers for Windows 7 thus, all of the hardware works correctly. This Mac is a beautiful thing. I promise I will not write everyday telling of my progress but I just wanted to share that I have begun taking baby steps with the Mac and so far it's a great experience. One thing is for certain, for iPhone 3GS users, the Mac OS is a must. In fact, Windows, even my beloved Windows 7 is already beginning to pale in comparison to Snow Leopard. If someone had told me two weeks ago I would be this enamored with the Mac, I would have thought him crazy but, as the saying goes, "Never say Never." Even in this short time, I feel quite at home using the iPhone 3GS VoiceOver gestures on the MacBook track pad. I have a question about Safari: Is there a way to maximize the size of the Safari Windows so that it takes up more of the Desktop than it does when it is supposed to be sizable? Currently, regardless of whether I select the Zoom button, I cannot get the Safari Windows to fill most of the display screen. Any tips on this will be greatly appreciated.
