So last night I got home and my new MBP was shipped, so I spent all night transferring all my files over. I'm new to Mac, but now I'm exploring the wonderful world of OS X 
I love this thing so far - I'll put up the box unveiling pics tonight when I get home, but here are the specs:
2.5 GHz Processor
200 GB HD at 7200 rpm
Upgraded to 4 GB RAM from Crucial
17" High Res Matte Screen
Office '08
Apple Care Protection Plan
.Mac Subscription
I almost freaked out when I installed the RAM. I have installed RAM in past PCs, but this is my first Mac. So I went on YouTube and followed one of the videos on how to put in RAM. I put in my RAM and turned on the machine and it wouldn't turn on - it just beeped 3 times. I was freaking out, but I guess I just didn't put it in all the way. So I reinstalled the RAM and now it works fine again - which was a huge relief.
Anyways, I started downloading and installing some new programs, but I'm a bit of a newbie with this. Any suggestions for must have applications or widgets I should download?
Thanks!
