does anyone here know of good guides for switching from PC to Mac?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Feedly, you have crashed on me for the last time. Old Reader, you're up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The #1 thing I needed when going from PC to Mac is a two-button mouse. And just time for my fingers to learn the different shortcuts. But that depends on how the person normally uses the programs -- if they are used to clicking on File and then Save (for example), they can just keep doing that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I use a Mac, and I will give up my 2-button mouse when you pry it from my cold, RSI-afflicted fingers.

I literally don't understand how people function with the one-button mouse.

I had a hard time switching to the 2 button mouse because I used macs exclusively until my most recent job. I just used control click.
