Hi there,


I just bought a macbookpro at Futureshop montreal, I needed a french canadian keybord but the last one was an opened box...
The guy checked but I think I still miss some stuff...

do you know what is supposed to come with the Macbook pro? I had no CD nor DVD, only the small black box with manual, cable DVI, 85W adapter.

THe OSX installed is Leopard 10.5.2 so I guess it is ok for me to install XP? I am a big 3DS MAX user, as Photoshop.

thanks for your advice!

In the box

MacBook Pro
85W MagSafe Power Adapter, AC wall plug, and power cord
Lithium-polymer battery
Apple Remote
DVI to VGA adapter
Install/restore DVDs
Printed and electronic documentation

http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/specs.html

If the machine is sold as new, demand those install/restore DVDs at minimum.

Click to expand...

Put two fingers on the trackpad and click.

Click-and-hold

Control > click

Enable 2 finger "secondary click" in System Prefs > Keyboard/Mouse > Trackpad. Then "right click" is simply laying both fingers on the trackpad. No need to click the button.
