Welcome to the new site. If you have been here before, you probably remember the site being a public tech support forum. We hope you enjoy the new direction the site has taken on, if you have any questions, please drop us an email.

The site is exclusively targeted to the Macintosh user who just unpacked their new computer. This does not mean if you are more advanced, you cannot learn a few new tricks. We certainly hope to learn some new ways of doing things from those of you veterans out there.

If you are reading this, we can assume you have a working internet connection, and are somewhat up and running. Over time we will delve into the nuances of connectivity and basic set up. For now, those posts will be reserved for a time when you have read OS X help more thoroughly.

For starters, if you know what RSS feeds are, please click the RSS link to the right. This will allow you to be updated every time a new post goes up.

If you have no idea what RSS is, simply pop your email address into the form at the right, you can get site updates via email instead. You may even choose to subscribe via RSS and email, as email will offer exclusive information to users not available in the RSS feeds.

At the bottom of every post is an area where you can post a comment. We encourage all users to posts comments. There is no question too simple, no need to be timid. If you have specific article/post suggestions, you can send those by way of email.

Since we are starting this site new, all posts will be specific to OS X System 10.5 Leopard. Many times there will be overlap. Some suggestions and tutorials will still work on earlier operating systems. That being said, the goal is to get you up to speed with the most current operating system, always moving forward.

Finally, we would appreciate it if you pass along a link to this site to your friends. If you know others who struggle with OS X, or would just like to one day master OS X, please pass along the address to OS X help. If you are far enough along, and have your own website, adding a link back to us certainly will not hurt our feelings.

We look forward to creating the best place for new Macintosh users to start learning.
