Guide/website/book for new Macbook pro user?

[lauridsen]

Hi,

I have been a PC/windows user for the past 20 years (Amiga before that), but now I find myself with a brand new Macbook Pro Retina 13" at work. I have been through a bit of tweaking to get my external keyboard and monitors working with it, and with that out of the way, I am looking for a guide, either website or book, that will explain how to get the most out of my Mac. Most of the guides I have seen for ex-windows users seems centered on gettting the Mac to behave as a PC, and I am not interested in that. Any suggestions?

Apple has a good site here ^ that shows you how to "switch" your way of doing things on a Mac.

If you want a book, the David Pogue "Missing Manual" books here and here are very good.

You should really get that book that Weaselboy linked to because it will help you greatly!
