Sooooooooooo for all you Mac Animals out there, what all do I need/more importantly want for my new toy. I'm getting iWorks and I'll download firefox for getting into company stuff, but what else.
Ferd <--------a sponge
When you get Firefox, get versi9on 3.6 instead of 4.0 it will work better with iCrew.
The $9 version of Office also applies to Mac if you haven't already used it for Windows.
Google Chrome.
Handbrake if you want videos on layover unless you are going to carry an external DVD drive cuz the Air doesn't have an internal one.
Skype.
Inkscape if you want a free graphics proggy, but you will have to learn it on your own.
TInkertool if you want to tweak stuff behind the scenes in MacOS.
