hmmm thanks...anyway...about mac mail... im on my 60 day trial.... i used the built in mail application right? i can receive messages fine. but i cant send? can anyone help? oh i tried sending from website it works but that sucks.. i wanna be able to send just by saying send this message...i dunno it has a major coolness factor sorry new mac user haha

Parents talaga. I personally have no aversion regarding giving out my credit card number online. As long as I see that lock at the bottom of the window, I feel relatively safe.

Besides, with such a low credit limit, I don't think hackers would benefit much with the one I use to buy stuff online.

Anyway, sorry, I have no answer to the question since I'm not a .Mac subscriber.

Nope, you don't need .Mac to get updates. Just run Software Update from System Preferences to get your OS X and Apple Application updates.
