I'll be switching to a Mac since my Dad computer's busted and I'm doing the good son thing and giving him mine since I was needing a laptop sooner or later. Since I've been using Mac's a lot at uni I've been really liking them over windows and decided to get a Macbook.
Now I need your help.. I need some good recommendations for some program replacements.
I need one for the following;
- Internet browser: Firefox, Safari, Camino or Other?
- Notepad Replacement: Preferably one with tabs.
- FTP App.
- BitTorrent: I heard Transmission is pretty good?
- Media Player: Want something like Media Player Classic.
- Codec Pack: Like DefilerPak but for mac (unless defilerpak is for mac).
- Unzipper: Like IzArc but for mac.
- Instant Messenger: I only use Google Talk but I heard that's not out for mac's so which is the best? iChat?
If you could post your recommendations and also a reason why and if you have any other apps that are a must then let me know
Thanks!
