UPDATE 03/24/07:
Everything is set up now. I did have one issue though, after speaking with the local Apple tech., it appears that my optical drive needs to be replaced since it will only play DVD's and not CD's. I have an appt. at 1:00 to get it replaced. Thank goodness my Apple store is less than 15min. away. I'm sure it's a rare occurance with a brand new computer
