Dashboard widgets are cool, but I just find I don't really use them that much....

I like 'em all (except for glossy display- I have an iMac so I won't pass judgment on that), but Éxpose is by far my favorite. I always try to squeeze the mouse on the Dells at my school when I'm trying to flip between apps.

Open up a bunch of windows, say Safari windows, an iCal, your mail app. Press F9. Marvel. Move the mouse around. Click on what you see.

Then press F10, then F11. Marvel more.

Thanks! That does sound nifty. I'll have to try it out tomorrow! :D

I voted for Expose! But the dock is a very favorite 2nd. When I first saw it on a Mac about three years ago, I thought it was awesome. So I searched the net for a program that would do it on the PC. I found one called objectdock. It does a fine job, in fact, I still use it on my PCs, when I'm not on my MacBook.

I use expose the most, but spotlight is quite brilliant as well.

Expose ftw. The ease of installing apps (and the ability to move them around) is second. Two fingered right-click and scrolling on the trackpad is third.

Spotlight has really come in handy for me because I'm still getting used to where files are stored on my mac, or I'm just saving em in the wrong spot in the first place :p

None of the above. I rly love them but they arent my favorite, thats got to be the ease of installing apps, the dock, apple remote, ... icant really pick a favorite. I would say running Mac OS X is my favorite feature :p

I picked the Blistering Speed, coming from a 15+ years of Windows speed blew me away.

But Honestly, I'd vote for the whole freaking lot. I love every single feature on Mac.

After working on the slowest Wintel machine EVER...built in 2004! I love how fast it is. But Spotlight is my favourite. It's helped me countless times and has categories which is something Vista doesn't have.

Expose is my second. Windows 'Flip'? NO THX K?
