Hello everyone,

I'm a new member here and a new mac owner. I just wanted to greet you all and to say that I hope my time here will be enlightening in all things Mac.

Take care!

I would also take a few days...months...years....whatever to acclimate yourself to the Lounge proper before venturing into the Political/War Lounge.

Hey nashishan, welcome to this place!

Just to give you a little orientation so that your stay here is more enjoyable, I'm actually the best person there is here. I'm at the top of the totem pole here. Basically, I'm the real deal.

I think what you mean to say is A/S/L? After that you can ask your question.

My aim was to suggest that you're only three years out of high school, but that seems to have failed.

Don’t worry, I got it. We can’t expect too much of these kids fresh out of high school, anyway.
