Press print screen on your keyboard (top right hand side) and then go into a graphics program like photoshop or paint shop pro and press control+v to paste in the image, then save as a jpg or png.

Paint will work too if your struggling for something better.

tomorrow doesn't matter,
turn that music up,

cos you're the only one who can get me on my feet,

Do you not have it just to the right of "F12" and above "insert"?

You got Tiger! I can see Dashboard and Spotlight on your picture. So how is it? I am planning on getting a Mac soon and I can't wait damn it!!


In my honest opinion, Tiger (10.4) is an OK upgrade from Panther (10.3) however I don't think it was worth the £80 I paid to upgrade from Panther to Tiger. But this doesn't apply to you because you are switching to Mac for the first time. You may hear a lot of people saying stuff like 'You don't get spyware or viruses for Macs". This is absolutely true and isn't a myth! Also, Mac OS X does not crash!

I have included some extra screen shots for you!

[attachmentid=110]

If you have any questions about switching, please don't hesitate to ask - I've been using Macs for over 2 years now!

It all looks really cool, especially Spotlight - looks like a great feature from the screenshots. Microsoft will probably have something like that when Longhorn comes out years later laugh.gif

My brother got a G4 iBook back in the beginning of 2004 and he loves it (he has panther). Even he said that the upgrade to Tiger didn't seem that much worth it but he will probably get the next update, Leopard, maybe? laugh.gif

FF47, which Mac have you got anyway?

Oh Mac icons look so beautiful compared to Windows' boring 2D non reflective crap. Sorry I will stop my windoze bashing right now because I fear my PC will crash (I apologise sad.gif )
