I have had my 15’ MBP for a couple of weeks now and there is no denying it is a great piece of kit, treated myself (macbook) to a Paul Smith case for it – Well Cool

The problem is I only really use it for web surfing, photos etc and I feel that I am only scratching the surface of what the machine can do. I almost want a little project to do so I can familiarise myself with the thing. I might even go to one of the apple stores and have a bit of tuition as I have heard good things about them.

I have say in-front of a pc for 15 years and feel a bit institutionalised, need to break free from the chains - any advice ?

Why don't you download the iPad (or iPhone) SDK and wriite an application that will make your fortune. Or as you say just go along to the Apple store as they do courses.

Good choice :-)
I got an imac at Christmas as I have been so impressed by my iphone and I wished I had bought a mac much sooner as they are so much nicer and faster to use that pcs.

Its also amazing how many people thing only a certain type of folk go for macs.

If you need office they seem to have the keys available on youtube of all places :s
Everytime you put a service pack on though it checks the serial.

Im using a cool wee app for it called bumptop which gives you a 3d desktop where you can literally throw icons and files about and put pictures up on the walls, stack files in piles etc. Quite cool and free to try

I got my imac brand new for £850 with the student discount so not really that expensive in comparison to a decent pc
