| I got my computer within a few days of ordering it! I stressed out about what software I should buy and my brother who is like an Apple guru in Seattle gave me good advice. He told me to buy the computer and use it and see what I need. So far I haven't bought anything additional! Do you have any Apple stores close to you? You can always get everything there too! You will love it! I was the last one to buy Apple in my family! Everyone has one, my parents, brothers, sister-n-laws!

rotate resize constrain crop enhance red eye retouch effects - e.g., Black and white, antique, edge blur adjust - e.g., bright, contrast, saturation, sharpness I don't think it will do the animated things like in the YT avatars. If I did alot with photos, I think I would get the photo upgrade

| My suggestion is GO FOR IT! I think you will love it - remember though, that it will take a bit of time to get used to it. It is WAY easier to use than a PC - and you will try to make it harder than it is - so just read the instructions (although you won't need them - I never do - and I know NOTHING about computers. The Mac is intuitive and tells you everything you need to do - or just does it for you. If you just "let it be" you will be amazed at the ease of use! ENJOY!

| I got my MacBook in Jan. and they gave me a free printer but we had just purchased one so my daughter has it. If you are not great with computers they also offered one on one classes for a year for 99.00. My husband and I both have laptops and sit in the family room at night and watch tv while on the computers-that is the best part for us.

| I have always had PC's, but on 1 of my jobs I use a MAC... When I have tried to send him a word doc his computer could not open it from the usb drive or disk because the disk is saved in a different format... I have to email him the document in order for him to open it and we always have to make some changes for it to look the same... I prefer my PC and laptops as I have 4 of the here... I love to take 1 to the dog show so I can still get to my stuff... Mac's are OK, but I have actually had more issues w/ compatibility w/ it than w/ the PC's... |

I've had just the opposite - those on PCs have more trouble opening things from me.... but I guess it happens both ways.

Do you see icons at the bottom of the screen? If so, drag your mouse over them and you will see the words Photo Booth when you drag the mouse over it. The icon is red curtains with 3 photos beside it. Click on the icon and photo booth will open. Do you see the black square at the top of the monitor? That's where you look, and where the pic originates. Here's a couple of pix I took with my photo booth.

| I have to use Firefox to access my MSN email account, for whatever reason Safari is screwy with it. I mainly use Safari unless I run into a site that isn't compatible.

| Oh, sorry about that - it was loaded on my dock when I got my computer. Go to the Macintosh HD (hard drive) icon and click on it. Then look for Applications on the left hand side. Click on it. Then scroll down to Photo Booth and take your mouse click and drag the Photo Booth icon down to the dock. Let off the Photo Booth icon when you get it to the dock and then it will stay there. Now, just click Photo Booth and get to work! You can always go to applications to open it - but it's much more convenient to have it in the dock. You can do that with anything that you use frequently, e.g., calculator, itunes, or whatever application you open everyday, just drag it out of the application folder to the dock and it will be right there anytime you want it.
