Moving on up to the MacBook Pro

I have finally made the move to the Mac; the “MacBook Pro”:http://www.apple.com/ca/macbookpro/ to be exact. And I have to say, I like it.

I have spent the last several days installing software. It is amazing how much quality open source software exists out there for OS X. So far my favourite is “AdiumX”:http://www.adiumx.com/. It is a really nice little multi-protocol IM(Instant Messaging) application. The only program that I have not found a substitute for so far, aside from big programs like Photoshop or Dreamweaver, is “Paint.NET”:http://www.getpaint.net/index.html.

So far, the only thing I am missing is FreeCell and some of the other little solitaire like games that come with a Windows or Linux computer. Anyone have any recommendations?
