So here goes,
Ive only used PCs for my entire life and I'm getting close to buying a 13inch MacBook. I have a iPhone and 2 iPods which I love so getting Mac seems to make perfect sense but I have some questions and concerns that I was hoping someone out there could answer.
I'm choosing the laptop for convience of going out of town but I'm very accustomed to using a desktop so is it possible to plug in a full sized keyboard and a standard pc right/left click mouse to the MacBook, as well as plugging in a large monitor? I have a Hanns-G HW191A monitor that I would really like to use with laptop.
I read that Macs have a "memory" feature that you can reset your Mac to a previous date you choose in case of a **** happens situation. Is that correct?
How well does windows xp or vista run on a Mac? I'm planning on using the standard Mac OS but just in case I can't adjust I want to know I can always revert back to XP.
Will I have to rebuy all my software for my PC with specific Mac designed versions?
This is mainly for pleasure (movies, internet, games, etc), but I will use it for school and a microsoft office for work. So if you have any advice on what to add when placing my order I'd love to hear it.
Thats all I'm really worried about and I appreciate any answers you can provide.
Thanks
