This is a tutorial on the most common differences between windows and Mac OS X that confuse new Mac users. It describes how the Finder works, what the Dock is and how to use it, Mac's internet browser Safari, how to "install" applications and programs, and how to use Expose.

This video is an excellent short video - it would have been 100% perfect if the Mac window being demonstrated was maximised so that I can see the icons and menus being demonstrated clearly on any size screen. Also there were a few terms used in the video which were not explained (cover flow, home folder, side bar and spaces), which is a real shame as it could easily distract you whilst watching.

@juliathepcgp Thanks! I recorded it in HD too so you can switch to HD and go to Full Screen Mode, you can see everything pretty clearly in that case.
