New Macbook Pro :D

New Macbook Pro :D
I got my new macbook pro a few days ago, I am not normally a Mac person, and my plan was originally to just nuke OSX and install Linux which is what I am used to, but one of my Mac fanboy friends managed to persuade me to at least try it, so I thought I may as well post some of my experiences here. I actually got it for free because I am at university and have dyspraxia, if you are wondering (did I mention I am thinking of changing my degree to politics :-P lol ).

The hardware is nice and thin and light, as you would really expect, but the power adapter 5 times as thick as the notebook with the UK plug attached, which spoils things really. It obviously has all the apple gimmicks, the magnetic power cord, and the fancy big touchpad etc, but the keyboard is going to take some getting used, no delete button, tiny enter key, and some idiot moved the bloody @ and " buttons! oh, and most annoying of all, no SD card reader...

As for the software, well, I have decided to stick with it, Its rather "meh" if you ask me. It seems a lot like linux, with a little more polish in places, which isn't surprising I suppose considering it is based on BSD. I guess jobs can take that as a complement coming from me, although I still can't figure out how to get MS office to maximise properly. firefox is nice and familiar of course. adium works just like pidgin I suppose. iCal is a nice touch too, given it integrates nicely with the google calendar on my G1.

I do have a few questions though...
1) can anyone recommend a good "open" forum for macs?
2) is it possible to resize bootcamp partitions? without telling bootcamp manager to just nuke windows?
3) any good no-cost mac software I should know about?
4) is the any way to emulate middle click? other than CMD-click?

anyway, thanks for reading.
