I am pretty happy with the Mac. Obviously there are some things I will never get used to.
The thing which bugs me most is losing my open windows and applications. On the PC I used the taskbar. Minimize a window and it just went south to live - but was still apparent. Want it back - just click it.
Example- today I had 3 bank accounts opened - each in separate windows - along with the 3 supporting Excel sheets. There were a few other items opened - which I needed for the work I was doing. Well I got totally frustrated. Tried Expose and Spaces - spaces has more possibilities than Expose. However I still have to “shop” for the particular window I want. Forget tabs.
To be fair, when one got this many windows opened in Windows, the did not all appear at first glance - but the Excels were together, etc.
What am I missing here? Opening 10 spaces was not real bad, but still not as easy as simply looking at the taskbar. Any add-ins available? While I’m ranting, I get more that a few “Safari Had to Close” - or some others like iphoto, and Pages. Usual or do I have a bug?
I will appreciate very much any input you folks may have.
