[QUOTE="InfernoSTi, post: 821078, member: 79500"] I right click on the dock icon when I want to fully exit a program. This is a fast way to go right to the real quit function...two mouse clicks and I'm done. I'm a recent switcher (since December 2008) and have found that I miss the few things I liked about Windows but overall prefer the Mac and OSX. I don't miss the counterintuitive things like going to start to shut down and the very long start up/shut down routines. I have used a PC since the late 1980s so you can imagine it is hard to unlearn old habits. Of course, I'm actually having fun learning a new system. It just depends on how you look at it. I too recommend finding a basic Mac instruction book that you like the writing style and reading it. I read "Switching to a Mac for Dummies" and found it very helpful on all the little issues I was frustrated with. After that, I had learned enough to know, generally speaking, what to look for and where. [/QUOTE]
