Installing an Application on the Mac

One of the first discoveries I had to make was how to install an application on the Mac.

Admittedly I spent a little time looking for a 'setup.exe', 'install.exe' or an equivalent. It turns out it is simple once you realize you simply drag and drop the application into you application folder the frustration diminishes.
