Most of us suity-type bods who were PC-based freak out when joining Whitewater, as we are faced with the dreaded Mac on top of trying to get our heads around a new company and new clients.

First, welcome to Mac for Mom! You can think of it as Whitewater's new repository of Mac tips. It's geared toward new Mac users like my Mom. She's a PC-based suity-type bod too.

Second, I expect many of the people who were PC-based were using older versions of Windows which, like Mac OS 9, are quite different to Mac OS X. So that is quite a change. But don't freak out just yet. The good news is that, according to David Pogue of the The New York Times, learning Mac OS X is a perfect way of preparing oneself for newer versions of Windows like Vista.
