Guess what?!

I am blogging from a new toy... I'll give you a hint... it's name starts with i and ends with k.

It automatically connected me to the internet using an available network. Can someone with a little more Apple experience fill me in: is that dangerous? Should I turn it off? Could I get viruses this way?

Another question: If you had an old PC with a broken CD-RW drive, and possibly a bunch of viruses & spyware, how would you go about transfering your files to your new Apple laptop? Would you email them to yourself? Would you attempt the small local area network thing described in the manual?

Well, back to setting all my preferences...
