I think you'll be fine. It IS great hardware and even if you don't fall in love with OS X the way so many of us have, you can install your favorite flavor of Ubuntu/Windows. Of course some things will be a bit jarring at first but a little time with something new goes a long way. Personally, I never click my trackpad (tap to click, two-finger-tap to right-click, three-finger to drag) and don't look directly at the finder all that ofter (command-space to go to open spotlight search, return to open something). Of course, if you work in an SSH terminal, there will be basically no difference.
