Ready, Set Up, Go
Your MacBook Pro is designed so that you can set it up quickly and start using it right
away. If you have never used a MacBook Pro or are new to Macintosh computers, read
this chapter for help getting started.
Important:
Read all the installation instructions (and the safety information starting on
page 67) carefully before you first use your computer.
If you are an experienced user, you may already know enough to get started.
Make sure you look over the information in Chapter 2, “Life with Your MacBook Pro,”
to find out about the new features of this MacBook Pro.
Many answers to questions can be found on your computer in Mac Help.
For information about getting Mac Help, see “Getting Answers” on page 32.
Apple may release new versions and updates to its system software, so the images
shown in this book may be slightly different from what you see onscreen.
