What’s next?

Congratulations! You’ve finished setting up your computer. Now continue
with one of the following steps:

m

If you are new to the Macintosh, see the next section, “Learning the Basics.”

m

If you are an experienced Macintosh user, turn to Chapter 2, “Getting
Help,” to learn about onscreen help (called “Macintosh Guide” or “Mac OS
Guide”). Or choose Macintosh Guide (or Mac OS Guide) from the Guide
menu (h) in the upper-right corner of your screen and explore it yourself.

m

If you want to connect other equipment, such as a printer, to your computer,
see Chapter 3, “Expanding Your Computer and Using Its Special Features.”

m

If you want to install application software on your computer, see
Chapter 4, “Installing and Using Application Programs.” The chapter
contains information on setting up your programs and managing memory.
You’ll need this information to properly set up any programs specifically
designed for computers with PowerPC microprocessors.

m

If you want to turn off your computer, see “Turning the Computer Off”
later in this chapter.

IMPORTANT

If you need to turn off your computer at any point, please see

“Turning the Computer Off” later in this chapter. It is very important to use
the correct procedure for shutting down your Macintosh before turning it off.

Before you begin working with your computer, be sure to read the important
health and safety information in Appendix A.
