In fact I wish Apple took some hints like for example giving us a choice of normal (as in Windows/KDE/Gnome like) window management.
As a lifelong Windows user who has continually heard about the superior UI of OS X, this is what's kept me from ever buying a Mac. I've tried a few out (I have some Mac user friends), and I just really hate the dock style.
Similarly, it's also kept me from buying Windows 7 until I've had a chance to see how configurable the window management in that is.
- CrazedGeek 16y agoWhile W7's taskbar acts like OS X's by default, it's a single checkbox away from making it act like earlier Windows taskbars. (Still no virtual desktops though.)
- jokermatt999 16y agoThank you. Does that disable jumplists and such as well? Those seem useful; I just dislike the combined launcher/window and application grouping.
- CrazedGeek 16y agoJumplists seem to work fine. For reference: Right click on the taskbar, click Properties, and change Taskbar buttons to Never combine.
