I was forced to use a Mac for work and almost resigned because of it. I happily concede that a lot of it is what you are used to, but to me I need to be able to configure all aspects of my UI / DE ... including things like universal font sizes (which was my biggest issue due to my eyesight and finding that their fonts gave me headaches on my external monitor). For people who are not "power users" then I suppose I can see the appeal. But the "it's our way or use something else" philosophy doesn't work for me. I will use something else (the problem is when you're forced into a system with that mindset). The computer is a tool, I am the master of the machine (especially as a programmer), and I can't stand feeling like there are barriers between me and how I want the system to behave. "Finesse" to me is the ability to install a completely different desktop environment if I so choose. To type "rm -rf /" as root and not have the machine question my command (very dangerous for the non power users I admit).
