Gave up. Bought an Apple. Need help

Is there a way to transfer things like my email address book etc.. over to the Mac from Windows Vista?

usually when you go to set it up it asks if you want to transfer stuff from a windows. I have never done it because there is nothing I want to transfer over, but if you didn't do that then I'm not sure.

Have to have the computer linked up obviously, but it's possible.

Are you on a wireless network?

I am wireless at home. I found out that I could have had it done at the Apple Store when I bought it, but did not have my old pc with me because I did not know I was going to buy when I walked in. Worse come to worse is a transfer of a hundred or so email address by hand. That's the only thing I was really trying to avoid. Everything else I saved to CD. I am not really a fan of a stranger going through my computer anyway as my whole financial life is on it. Been messing with this new MacBook (2.4G model) all day. Very cool so far. I see why they say "Once you have Mac, you never go back".!

condense your windows address book to a .vcf file, email it to yourself, then check your email on the mac and import the file into your address book.
