Hi!
I'm seriously thinking of switching from Linux to Mac at about the end of January (bonus should afford me a new Mac-Book). I'm a little worried about it though, I've been a very happy Linux user for about two years. I've always enjoyed the customizing ability but realized that all the customizing I do is really to make my system behave and look like a Mac. I figure I might as well just get the real thing. I'm also looking forward to my hardware and software "just working".
Things that concern me are loss of the open source community and ideals. Also if you ever have trouble with something you can almost always find help or advice on the forums. Linux is almost infinitely customizable to your needs witch is also nice.
Anyone who has switched from Linux (Ubuntu in particular) chime in and let me know if there is anything you miss or regret. Also let me know what you like better, was it worth it?
Thanks in advance,
Michael
