d_vader's Journal: Plea for Help!

Just got put into my new, bigger office at work. Since I am now handling the jobs of what will eventually be two people, in two seperate departments, I ended up with two desks, and two computers. But, one of them is a Mac.

I've used PC's from day two. (Day one was a Commodore 128!) I've seen Macs, but never touched one, although I kept telling myself I should probably learn to use one some day.

My boss has only used Macs for 20 something years, and he and technology don't really get along that well.

So, now, in addition to having to teach him how to use a PC (since it was his Mac I got), I have to learn to use a Mac at the same time.

So, I'm asking for help. Any advice, or references, you can give me so that I can get oriented and figure things out would be great. (That whole one mouse button thing throws me, and I can't find programs I install.) Basically a Mac for Windows Users type reference, to tell me what to look for to do tasks I already know how to do on PC.

Quick answers:

1) No, I can't just use a PC, or even Linux. The job involves manipulating Adobe Illustrator files, and the destination uses Macs, and PC Illustrator files aren't always compatible.

2) It's OS X, on a Dual G4. That's about all I know.

TIA!
