Hi Nic, Thanks for the offer for help and no the difficulties didn't deter me. I don't have lots of time to spend on the mac right now but I'm watching the list and reading things so that hopefully my next podcast will go smoother than the first 3 have so far. The mac is really nice and I'm sure if I hadn't spend years on windows the transition would go smootther for me.
But overall I'm liking the mac and looking forward to seeing how it can do the things I'll be wanting to do with it in the future.

From listening to the podcasts, it sounds like you had some interesting things happen during the install, for sure. I definitely hope that isn't actually putting you off attempting to fiddle around more with the system. I hope you're enjoying the experience, and good luck playing with your Mac. Feel free to mail me off-list in case there's something you'd like me to explain, to show you, or whatever. I'm all for trying to help someone make the transition easier, as I switched in August myself.

For those of you that don't know me, my name is Rick Harmon and I run the Blind Geek Zone website where i provide lots of free tutorials for Windows and primarily Jaws. I Just purchased a mac mini a couple of weeks ago and decided to do a series of podcasts from the perspective of switching over to the mac from a windows point of view. I know litterally nothing about the mac side of town and have been curious for a while now about using one. So far reviews have been quite positive and I plan to continue to do more podcasts as I learn how to do more and more with the mac. Anyone interested in listening to them, the links will follow. mac podcast 1: http://www.blind-geek-zone.net/audio/macpodcast1.mp3 mac podcast 2: http://www.blind-geek-zone.net/audio/macpodcast2.mp3 mac podcast 3: http://www.blind-geek-zone.net/audio/macpodcast3.mp3 Remember these podcasts are primarily geared to people curious about switching over to the mac from windows and are not really for experienced mac users, unless you want to have a laugh. Enjoy, Thanks for providing a great list for learning the mac.
