ah nice nice. Here are some mac applications you might be interested in.

Adium- yahoo,aim,msn messanger in one. No webcam options, but fantastic app!

appzapper- delete all those unwanted files that tag along with applications when you delete

handbreak- rip dvds to play on itunes/ipod/iphone

tooble- download youtube videos to your mac

unrarx- for .rar files.

If your interested get your dashboard set up. I recommend istat for all of your computer cpu checking needs. i was a bit long winded. But you might be interested in some of those.

Hey - I finally got my first Mac in September, and I love it!

I go to MacRumors every day to check out the latest "rumors" and to check out what's happening- I now love everything Apple.

Have fun!

I have a few of those installed already, but I havent heard of istat yet. I will definitely grab that/

Thanks again!

wow another mac user in cleveland! Do you live in a cleveland suburb?

No, I live in the inner city. I'm right by Metro Hospital.

I'm in the southern 'burbs, y'all. Nice to know you're nearby. We can whine about the Browns together.

And congratulations on the iMac, Jason. I was already a Mac person, but I got a new iMac in September, and I still look at it and think: what a beautiful machine this is!

We can whine about the Browns together.

Ha! Yeah... I have a feeling we will have a lot to whine about too next season! At least we have the Cavs now.

I'd add
- OpenOffice (or Pages, if you can afford the suite. I love Pages.)
- DeLocalizer (saved a lot of space initially)
- Caffeine
- LiteIcon (a pathetic CandyBar imitation, but it's free)
- TinkerTool
- Onyx...

The last two you can live without, but I run through Onyx and do maintenance once in a while to speed things up.
