Ok I have two computers. On the Tutorial I am working on it tells me to hit the Insert Key so I can set the pivot point. I can do that on my PC but my Mac doesn't have a Insert key. Is there another way of setting the Pivot point?

Glad to see a new Mac SimplyMayaer!

Whats your rig? I am working on a 12" 1Ghz PB and I must say that its not fast enought... Of course I got this PB to do java programing and only started Mayaing afterward but now I am more and more looking for a G5!

I have 2 Macs. My first was a G3 600 iBook. I just bought a used G4 Tower 600 from a friend who doesn't use Macs much for $100. Planning to get a G5 and a used iMac when I get my income tax back this year. G5 is mine the iMac and G4 goes to my two Daughters. May give the iBook to my son.

Wow! A tower for 100$ either he is a very good friend or didnt know its value.

It can probably be sold for 5x more in less than a day! You are lucky!

I really whish I could get myself a G5 this year but unless I am able to trade / sell my PB, I will have to wait a year or two since I had the stupid idea to buy a loft and will know the joy of morgage...

Happy Mayaing!
