No problem.
I am looking forward to hearing more about transferring files. This fall I purchased my first Apple product, a Macbook Pro. I am settingit up as well with Parallels to run Linux (Ubuntu).
Ubuntu isn't bad. It's an OK desktop. I have some issues with it but not enough to install anything else at the moment (but it's getting there). I'm running Dapper Drake. Edgy Eft kernel panics during the install.
You may also want to try an Apple// emulator on the machine. Some people say they get better performance by running software in emulation than they do natively on the same machine. (eg. Appleworks in an emulator is much faster than M$ Word on a PC or Mac)
