A Touch Of Class
If you're not a Mac user who feels lost in the world of OSX, you are not alone. I was one of you. At work we run OS9 (don't say it, please), but at home on my brand new G4 Powerbook I've got OSX. And it feels like being in a country where I don't speak the language. So I took a class at the Apple Store called OSX for Upgraders. These aren't the free seminars they give upstairs in that auditorium area, these cost $99 for 8 hours of instruction in a small, 12-person maximum group, and worth every penny. They also offer classes on OSX for switchers (meaning you were an IBM person), for first-time users, for digital photography (which I'm taking next) and digital moviemaking. If you feel lost, this is your roadmap. And it's a lot cheaper than hiring a professional mac geek to come to your house.
