Gmail+mail.app
Well, I got my Mac Mini today, WOW i love this thing!
My only problem is that I cannot get mail.app to accept the gmail info, the same info worked fine in entourage, I cannot get into mail to get a full option panel to enable ssl connections.
Also, how do I see current RAM usage?
A quick over all first impression: I have been using this Mac for about 4 hours now, and I have to say, I dread hitting the KVM to jump back into windows to finish a few projects. I am VERY happy with this computer and the operating system. The fit and finish is unparalleled and simply amazing.

Follow these instructions very carefully. Especially server port # and ssl.
ram usage: activity monitor in utilities or menumeters from ragingmenace

Actually I was using those instructions, the thing that was throwing me for a loop was there was no security option in the initialization window, I just by-passed that (after clicking through a copious amount of question boxes asking if I was sure I wanted to exit preliminary setup) and set it up in the program, with a full array of options.
And thank you for the recourse monitor info
menumeters will mislead you every time.

On the memory usage front: be very very careful in how you interpret memory usage. Unless you are familiar with how *nix memory management works you are far more likely to misinterpret memory usage in MacOS X then to be able to get something useful out of it. Even season *nix veterans need to understand a few of the quirks (especially the way that shared memory is reported due to dylibs).

Acctualy, I want to among other things learn unix on the mac, can you recommend a good book or resource that I can use?
