Just Bought MBP. Haven't turned it on. Few Questions

[Jblack4083]

I have pictures at the bottom. I'm really happy I finally got it after it being sold out almost EVERYWHERE on a daily basis.

1) Should I reinstall the OS as soon as I turn it on? Or should I get it up and running first. How do i go about this? I don't need the printer drivers. If i need one I will just download them as needed. Do I need a certain language if it is used on a website? If so i need Japanese and Chinese because I shop at some sites that use those languages in certain areas

2) What should I check for and how. No I am not checking for the yellow. If i don't notice it in normal use then I don't care.

3) Should I use firefox. I have it on my current windows PC and love it. Is safari better in your opinion?

1) No, unless you want to save a couple of GB's on the HD.
2) If you don't notice anything why bother.....
3) It is preference! I would get Safari a chance though.

1) Like you, I bought it 2 weeks ago and I formatted it as soon as I got it because I didn't want printers drivers, aditional fonts and tryware (office and a few iLife programs & files). This saved me some space for bootcamp. I have the 120 Gb disk, so every giga is worth saving.

2) if you turn it on and everything works fine, then you dont need to deep search it most of the people get perfect machines.

3) you should try camino.
