I have a Mac I use regularly. I have a Ubuntu machine I use constantly, and I have a Windows machine I use when I have to. I love the Mac UI in general, but I've always had a slight preference for the menu buttons on the right. It just makes more sense to me. To close a window, I click on the right-most corner of that window. I read from left to right, closing the window is the last thing I want to do with a window, since by that time, I'm done with it. The buttons on the right mean that the X to close comes last in the order of all of the info/tools in the window chrome. To me, this just makes more sense.

Ehmm. For this thought to make sense, all your windows would have to be text only, one line that you always want to read and doesn't wrap, with no other way to dismiss except the close button, and with your cursor always following along with your eyes. By your logic, actually, the close button would be best placed in the lower right for any window with several lines of text.
