i am a freshman in the computer science program at my college and all CS majors were given IBM T60p, but i hate WINDOWS and these things are cluttered as hell with all sorts of shit i dont want. i have a mac book pro that i would kill to be able to use but im not sure where i would go and what is the best (if it exists) programs to use for whta i need.

-a visual studio 2005 like C++ enviorment
-a putty like enviorment where i can log into a unix box

as of now those are the only things i need to use so any help would be appreciate
 
Well you have XCode for your IDE (On the disk that came with the MacBook) and can write in Objective C, C++, Java... you name it.

As for PuTTY, you have a filly fledged OpenSSH environment right there installed now. Open the Utilities folder that's in the Applications folder. Double click on the Terminal application and voila, one bash Shell, all ready to accept commands like ssh -2 user@hostname.domain

Enjoy the Mac.
