			== Character Palette ==

			The character palette does the same thing as Microsoft's charmap utility. I usually get to it by clicking on the internationalization flag near clock on the menu bar.

	I just got a MacBook Pro on March 21, 2006. I've been mostly a Windows User for the past ten years. Sure I use a Linux & Solaris, but not for my desktop. The closest thing I've used to a Mac was my old Apple IIGS. So, there is quite a bit to learn, or maybe unlearn. I went to a 'Switch at Six' presentation at the Apple store, which was a HUGE waste of time. I learned virtually nothing, and the presenter had never used Windows, and really didn't know the Mac that well. So, when I figure out something that I do often as Windows user, and figure it out on the Mac, I'll add it to this page.		I just got a MacBook Pro on March 21, 2006.

New page

I just got a MacBook Pro on March 21, 2006. I've been mostly a Windows User for the past ten years. Sure I use a Linux & Solaris, but not for my desktop. The closest thing I've used to a Mac was my old Apple IIGS. So, there is quite a bit to learn, or maybe unlearn. I went to a 'Switch at Six' presentation at the Apple store, which was a HUGE waste of time. I learned virtually nothing, and the presenter had never used Windows, and really didn't know the Mac that well. So, when I figure out something that I do often as Windows user, and figure it out on the Mac, I'll add it to this page.
