Congratulations on your new computer. I'm sure you are going to love it.

Well covering the basics you will need VLC Media Player found at : http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Adium X is the application for MSN/AIM/Jabber/Yahoo messenger and many other instant messenger services. It also has awesome features for personalizing the messenger windows and chats. It can be found at : http://www.adiumx.com/

I've found Mail.app to be quite useful for accessing my .mac mail, work mail and several freebie mails like hotmail and gmail. You should know where that is

Transmission is the easiest, most lightweight and convinient Torrent app out there IMHO. It deletes the .torrent files automatically and is not a memory hog like Azureus. Although Transmission doesn't allow for the same ammount of prefrences and features its more then enough.
Tranmission : http://transmission.m0k.org/
Azureus : http://azureus.sourceforge.net/

Hope this helped. Congrats again on your MacBook
