I'm in the same boat...first time Mac user. I purchased a Macbook ONLY for using Pro Tools LE! I have never even seen the PT interface nor done any software/PC recording, but I've wanted to get into it for a while now.

Be sure not to set up system updates when you get your Mac becuase I did that before I installed PT and it wouldn't start up....it just bounced in the dock. Fortunately, I googled all of my questions and found all of the answers right in these forums. I honestly googled on at least 4 occassions and every time I found that someone else had already encountered a very similar problem and the awesome people on these forums walked them through a fix!

Good luck....feel free to shoot me an Email if you get stuck on installing all of your new gear as I just ran through it all on a new intel based Mac and it's all fresh in my mind!
