Mac vs. PC

It's taking some time getting used to my new Mac. I do like the keyboard and am enjoying the fun features in iLife 2009 such as face recognition and gps places. It's amazing how accurate the face recognition is...although I did have a good laugh when it brought up a plate of Italian food and asked if it was a certain friend who I'll let remain annonymous.

I didn't realize I was adjusting to the touch mousepad as fast as I am until I was on my other laptop and kept hitting the sensory pad to "select" instead of the click buttons on the PC. But I am still learning, as sometimes I try to use two hands on it (like my PC) and end up usually enlarging the images on the screen before I realize what I'm doing.

The documents explorer that's on the PC is something I miss and haven't figured out how to do some of the moving around of files that I did on the PC. I also can't remember how to open more than one Safari (web) page on the Mac. My Picasa also seems to work differently on the Mac...not as user friendly, or maybe I just have to do things differently.

Overall, I do like the Mac, but will be happy when I know how to use it in my sleep like a PC.
