I am currently looking at changing my laptop from a PC to a mac. Anyone know anything about doing that? Can anyone tell me of any problems they are having with PC -- Mac compatibility? I am a college student and I want good solid computer. My current PC is a lemon. Also can anyone tell me what the difference is between a macbook and a macbook pro?

oh wow. That's so great. And your so fast. lol. Welcome to the world of Apple Macs and sooner you'll be a macatoid geeky nerdy girl...lol.. How come you just decide and get that so fast? lol.
What Apple Macbook do you have? Where to you get that Macbook? What is that 1,500 bill? Is that the price of the Macbook? And are you having a garage sale (because you have inventoried your parents house so you can return the cashes have you lost in having that Macbook....lol)? Sorry for asking a lot but I'm not a police officer or whatever you may think of me. lol.
Time Machine is a backup application utility. It is better if you have a separate Hard Disk space for backing-ups large and important files automatically. Or if you want have those Apple's "Time Capsule". But, I know for you it is not yet important for you there are more other things you have to know or to do at the moment.
Accidentally zooming in and out. Well I still have little know about Macbooks or still have not yet use. Especially using the track pads. But I'll just presumed I just know about it and give you suggestion or ideas. Like setting-up the options the Preferences for the touch pad at the Preference Pane.
FYI there's soon be a MS Office 2011. To know more about apple softwares updates I recommend for you to visit or subscribes RSS or emails in "Macupdate" website. Or visit other websites for Apple Macs. Watch videos different Apple Macs users on youtubes. Videos like unboxing, reviews and experiences. Recommend channels like soldierknowsbest and macmost.
BTW, I'm using for a year now an Alu iMac 20" (Model early 2009). I just have the Apple Magic Mouse. And life is just simpler but has greater production, fun and lifestyle. I'm a graphic designer and doing multimedia stuffs.

Having a hard time emailing my boss. I used numbers to make a spreadsheet that I can't figure out how to e-mail to her pc computer.

Since you are a college student, i assume you juggle work with fun. you are probably a type who likes to surf net, work on projects, complete assignments, keep track of your notes, recorded teachings (if any), you like to throw in a couple of games in between, rock on to music tracks, keep your college album organized :D and ofcourse unless you are a female, you cant live without gaming!
In order words, you dont need something stable and eye candy. you need something very flexible, an os which can cater to your demanding needs. now god forbid if you are going to buy a mac.
for a college student buying a mac will be like marrying a person by seeing his/her looks only.
