After using windows machines for about ten years, I am learning to use the mac operating system (MAC OS X) again.
The first computer I ever bought was a Apple Performa 6200 which I used in college. Once I started working for an Internet Service Provider (thegrid.net) I switched to using windows machines.
Long story short, I’m having to figure out how to use the new MacBook Pro I purchased recently. I find this process rather frustrating as I’m the type of geek that likes to trick-out my computer with all the latest tips and tricks I can find.
If you’ve any OS X reference recommendations (preferably of the online variety) to help me get up-to-speed quickly let me know.
In the meantime, I’ll try and enjoy the new toy instead of letting it frustrate me.

The Masked Blogger is a new anonymous Apple employee blog, or so it’s labeled by the author with statements like:
Stay tuned for an explanation on the anonymity. It’s a genuine attempt to join and advance the conversation … to effect positive change without jeopardising my livelihood.
If you’re going to start an anonymous blog you may want to make sure that you don’t use your personal name in your RSS feed. I enjoyed what I read on the The Masked Blogger site and decided to add it to my RSS Reader and upon doing so noted that his name is listed in the URL of the site RSS feed: //www.keithmcollins.com/atom.xml.
I also conducted a quick Google search on name and found this comment on Shel’s blog from last month.
So Keith M. Collins if you believe you’re being anonymous you aren’t.
