Ok, you finally came over to the light side and bought a mac! Yeah!<\/p>\n

So I am always asked; “what else should I buy?” I have put together a few must have’s for mac users. <\/p>\n

Most users enter the mac world with a power book or the mini. The first thing your going to need is port\/disk expansion. I highly recommend the Mini-Pal<\/a>. This neet little device gives you expanded usb and firewire ports, plus a faster hard drive. It even has a one button backup system.<\/p>\n

Want to use your mac as a Digital Video recorder? Get an eyeTV card<\/a>. And better yet, get the eyeHome<\/a>. This will let you watch your video, photos, music, or any of your eyeTV recorded shows on your TV.<\/p>\n

Do you want to do video or audio editing? If you want to have very fine control over the cursor, get a Powermate<\/a>. I love mine, and having it pulse whenever I have new mail is the ultimate geek toy.<\/p>\n

An Ipod<\/a>! But hey, I don’t need to tell you that. But what you really need is two software programs. Jhymn<\/a> and Make AAC’s Bookmarkable<\/a><\/p>\n

If you have a mini, you really need 1gig of memory<\/a><\/p>\n

Enjoy your new mac!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
