I just got my macbook in the mail yesterday, this is my first personal MacBook, and I love it, it is so simple and beautifully designed!
Currently running Yosemite on it, I only have:smcFanControl, Skype, and firefox, haven't really installed anything on it yet since I don't really have any knowledge on OS X.
My only real complaint is that the control key doesn't let you copy and paste, it feels awkward using the command key, but I think I will end up getting used to it.

What are some must haves? Also is there any app that allows me to change my lock screen to something more customized?

Thanks.
