Kind of my version of Blue's thread. I got a MacBook Pro yesterday. Haven't really done much with it yet, but what sort of apps should I install? I'm not hugely familiar with what's available for macs.
Firefox, obviously IM program? I don't think there's a version of Trillian for Macs Finance management? Not sure if the Mac comes with something for this... I use Microsoft Money on my PC Other stuff? -------------------- |

Yeah, laptop. Macbook Pro, 120GB HDD, 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Almost got the upgraded one w/ 140GB and 2.4 gigs, but I decided that bit of boost wasn't worth the extra 500 bucks.
