Just purchased a Macbook Pro and I love it! However, I need a 1 hour crash course in some of the more advanced features. Is there anyone who hangs out at a local Starbucks or somewhere that would be interested in helping me? There is a $50 Starbucks gift card in for the right expert!

Thanks,

Michael

You might want to try posting on the Marketplace forum to see if anyone is interested (not sure if this would be the right place).

Just so you know, Apple offers one on one training for new machines as well (this)
http://www.apple.com/retail/onetoone/

I've never been particularly interested in those training programs, as I could probably teach one at this point, but for someone new I could definitely see it as helpful. Sites like Macrumors (where you currently are) are also great resources for learning about your new computer.

It would help if you mentioned your location.
