Aim higher: at some point you may want to move a file in Finder or create an email attachment that can be opened by a PC user! Soon you may want to attempt to see photos online without distorted colors and reduced contrast! Those things are something Apple users apparently don't really do, that's been my impression so far. If you're into photography, try coming in with 4-6GB worth of RAW photos and process them without leaving a million of copies all over the file system in various idiotic "libraries", since Apple doesn't believe their users are smart enough the grasp concepts of a filesystem, folders and files. And from a programmer's perspective try mounting an SSHFS via Finder's "connect to server..." or try doing anything FTP... Or join the army of hackers combating "acid blue" in Terminal, or meet your new habit: Alt-tabbing through a giant list of running apps that don't even have a window open, like Skype or Adium or always-stuck-in-there Preview.app Or you could try something truly basic, like selecting multiple non-adjacent files with a keyboard or resizing a window, or switching... ok I'll stop. My list of OSX limitations and shortcomings is about 80% of Windows' issues. When I'm on a Mac I just fire up Safari and hide inside of it, there is no point of using anything else: it's like every consumer app bundled by default was designed for a 4 year old: pretty but useless. People tend to like bright beautiful objects, pretty looking women, brown puppies and OSX, but watching them doing actual work on a Mac is like watching a tortoise racing. Some of the issues can be fixed/corrected through obscure or not settings/tweaks or installing/purchasing non-Apple software, but not all. With that in mind, check out Linux/Gnome if you're after getting shit done. P.S. I'm on OSX right now, enjoying awesomeness of Safari's HTML rendering and coolness of MBP's keyboard/screen combination: if nobody critiques, they won't get better. :-P
