Re: i am getting a mac

Well done! Welcome to the bright side of the moon  wink   tongue

Apps? Gimp, inkscape, appcleaner. evernote, google earth, geektool...

Are you new to Macs? I have a ton of advice that would help you  smile

Re: i am getting a mac

Gimp is good for drawing and for animation, iMovie can be good, although Adobe After-effects is more professional.

Openoffice or Libreoffice is good... I use the latter on my Snow Leopard Dual Boot. (Windows Office on my Lion)  smile

And some tips:

To uninstall apps, drag them to the trash, but to uninstall them properly, an app like app cleaner is good  smile

Which Mac?  smile

BTW, that reminds me - I got a headset today. I found it while fishing around for a coat to use for my Soldier cosplay. (in my sig)

Re: i am getting a mac

TextWrangler if you do any programming (which most people on Scratch do) (well, Eclipse might still be better for Java, and Eclipse/IDLE might be better for Python), I think there's a free version of PhotoShop, there might be a free (lite) version of StudioMAX or whatever it's called, and Shadow Era's a fun game.

Mine freezes when the settings are high on LOTRO.  I think it's a processor/graphics card overload.

Don't get a Mac. Get a PC. Seriously. You'll thank me.

You were probably using Internet Crashplorer, which doesn't just freeze Windows but also crashes your PC and allows viruses on it. Try using a better browser like FireFox or something.
