Fellow Mac owner here. My first advise would be to reinstall OS X and free up some space. Do an advanced install and remove all the stuff you won't use - language specific stuff especially. This should free up around 5gb of space.

For apps try out:
Web browsing - Camino/Firefox
Email - Thunderbird
FTP - Cyberduck
MSN/ICQ/etc - Adium

Make sure you have some fun with iSight too.

I'm a mega Mac owner - I have 2 myself (Mac Mini, and the Daddy to your's, the MacBook Black)....

My Brother has an awesome 24" iMac, my mum has a eMac, my wife's cousin has a Mac Book Black like mine and an eMac.....

That's what you call spreading the word!!!

Once you've tried Mac, you'll never go back.....It just works!

Vista??!!!??? - Looks suspiciously like Mac OSX to me....(if you can't beat 'em, join 'em??? Me thinks so....)

Show me a PC that can run Apple OS in a window whilst still running it's own OS.....

MSN???? Come on Dan, that's sooooo PC.....You've got an proper computer now so start using iChat - MUCH safer and usable than MSN.....

my iChat user name is markcoupe749.....

You'll be really impressed with your new machine when you use iChat to have a 4 way video chat with 3 of your mates.....I use it to talk to my brother in Kent, My brother in Liverpool and my Dad in Tampa, USA at the same time!!!
