Those USB-C ports will function exactly like a regular, old-fashioned USB Port, you just need an adapter (like you can get from the link I posted from Amazon). Or you could connect an old-fashioned USB Hub to one of those USB-C ports, with an adapter (USB-C to USB-A) and plug in as many USB devices as you want. (A Thunderbolt port uses a USB-C connector, but I think it gives you faster transfer speeds.)

I assume you've unpacked the computer and have it up & running? What do you need to do next? I assume you transferred everything from your old computer, that you wanted to transfer, using Apple Migration?
Yes it's exactly like that and I had it running right away. It's the latest one. 15"- M3 chip- 24 gigs ram- 512 HD. I'm still on the windows right now. The display screen is beautiful.

Question, should I use Safari or load Chrome that I'm using now on This windows PC?
Where do I put bookmarks?
How do I close these small windows that pop up?

Thanks, David
