m If, when you press Return, you see the Macintosh desktop (shown here),

your system software is already set up correctly.

Skip now to “What’s Next?”

m If you see a blinking question mark, see “Solutions to Common Problems”

in Chapter 6.

m If you see anything else on your screen, or if you see nothing at all, see the

section “Problems Turning Your Computer On?” next in this chapter.

Note: To save energy, your computer is automatically set to put itself to sleep
if you haven’t used it for 30 minutes or more (the screen dims). If your
computer attempts to go to sleep while you’re setting it up, simply press a key
on the keyboard to “wake it up.”
