Yes! How right you are! THAT'S what was missing! And I'm very surprised to see Apple offer such poor documentation with OS X. This is the first OS they've put out that I've used that wasn't immediately intuitive, and, yet, I feel they offered me less documentation this time around in teaching me how to use it.

That said, the guide that was posted ^ up there ^ was exactly what I needed. If you haven't read it yet, please do so. It gave me enough of an understanding to begin putting all the pieces together so I could see the big picture. I believe I've actually made the switch to full time OS X now, and will only drop back to 9.2.2 when I absolutely must.

This thread was very timely as another forum in which I am a regular has several people who have either just jumped to OS X or who have just bought a Mac after being long time Windoze users (yea!!). It seems I'm only about 2 steps ahead of them, and they're turning to ME for help! :eek: If it hadn't been for this forum, I would have been completely lost. So all the info you guys are giving me is being passed down to others. We should have lots of happy OS X users real soon. :)

I'm also beginning to really like OS X. Nothing like having power and personality all rolled into one. This is one cool OS. :)
