After about a 4 month wait for the new Macbook to be released, I finally decided to get one. I originally planned on getting the pro, but I was really impressed with the mb, so I went with it instead. After messing around with it all day I love it!
I was a little worried about the screen looking bad, but it's lovely. Also, all my keys look fine and there are no loose parts, or anything defective, from what I can tell. I love the OS too. It's certainly different from what I'm use to, but I'm catching on quickly and notice many improvements over windows. But I do have a few questions:
Is it a bad idea to keep it plugged in overnight to download something? I remember reading somewhere that if you're going to keep the computer plugged in to remove the battery, but I think that would get bothersome very quickly because I'll probably be keeping it plugged in the majority of the time I'm at a desk at home. I plan on playing WoW and a few other games.
Just now, when typing this, I came up with a question. When I misspell a word on windows, I can right click it to see an alternate spelling, but I don't know how to do that on here...
Lastly, is there a way to keep the computer on for downloading things, but with the lid shut? I realize these are simple things and I'll figure most of it out with use, but I'm going to bed soon and would like to know the answer to these.
Again, I'm very happy with the purchase. If there is any general advice you'd like to give for a new mac user, I'd like to hear it.
