[QUOTE="MarkY, post: 937452, member: 72995"] The best advice I was given when I made the switch was to "not try to make OSX act like windows". Taking this advice made the switch much easier. That being said, there are still some OSX things that bug me: - window resizing - Finder could use a lot of work - lack of customization (themes, etc) However, the quirks above are far outweighed by the benefits of OSX: - NO flipp'n registry - installing and uninstalling apps is a snap - network setup a breeze - much less maintenance (virus, trojan, spyware) I bought my wife a Macbook Pro a couple of weeks ago and she has never used anything but a Windows machine. She has already stated that she loves OSX compared to Windows. Her only beef is getting used to the trackpad, and she says it will just take some time. [/QUOTE]
