    So I finally converted to a Mac, after a long-time PC user, and now I need to know some good apps for the Mac.

    Torrent app?
    Movie player?
    Etc.

    Suggestions?

    Lol, so you bought a Macbook. I wouldn't be surprise if people start telling you to dual boot with Windows 7.

    No Blueray drive, no HDMI output, lame graphics, and crappy software unless you run windows on it.

    I just don't see why anyone would want to pay upwards of $1200 for one.

    Unless you just want the warm feeling inside that you bought an Apple.

    It's all about the look, they want to feel cool, I am not talking about the OP, but people in general who buy Macbooks. The only Apple product I have is the I-PHONE, but I am waiting for the Samsung Galaxy to come out for t-mobile.

    Haters? I'm just stating the obvious point coming from a PC users who are switching to a OSX. Obviously people will install dual boot to take advantage of certain softwares/programs that you can't with the OSX. Most PC who switch over to Macs usually dual boot.

    Hahahaha, I like how someone who admits to only owning one Apple products claims to know why people use Apple products :grin:
