        If you're used to Windows then you'll find most things work as expected. Once you start experimenting a little, you'll find that there's usually an OS X way of doing the same thing that's even easier/more intuitive/less annoying

        Even now, after using OS X since about 2002, I occasionally think "Shouldn't you be able to do that such-and-such a way?"

        It always seems to turn out that you can

        A dig through the archives at http://www.macosxhints.com/ will probably prove a useful way of spending some of your free time over the next few days - it's one of the few websites I've visited almost every week for years, and I usually learn something new.

        I would suggest caution about using third-party utilities that claim to "improve" the behaviour of core OS stuff like the Dock or the Finder - Apple doesn't make much effort to support such hackery (although they don't deliberately set out to break things, contrary to what the paranoid imbeciles of Slashdot might think), and it's always things like that that cause breakage when OS updates come around.

          Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he/she
          is supposed to be doing.

            it's what i'm hoping for. looks like i'm going to be satisfied too. the wireless is working an absolute treat. very fast to set up and connect (at least once i'd worked out the password i setup)
