I can't (easily and reliably) get OS X to run on my non-Mac computer while Debian runs like a champion, this is what's missing from OS X :) Otherwise I would like to try it seriously as my main OS if I get a chance in the future. Heck, I even used Windows 7/8 for a few years and even they get good enough after installing Cygwin, so I can't think of any showstoppers that would make me dislike OS X. (Well, lack of the vast apt repository may be a problem, but they say very good things about homebrew and MacPorts, so this wouldn't be an issue I guess.) I was a heavy OneNote user in Windows and accumulated a lot of stuff in it, so after coming back to Debian, I desperately tried running it in Wine and also tried the Web version but unfortunately they didn't cut it. Currently I use CherryTree[0] and it gets the job done but it's very far away from the OneNote experience. [0] http://www.giuspen.com/cherrytree/ http://www.giuspen.com/cherrytree/

If you have an iPad with a bluetooth keyboard OneNote is great on iOS. Also, thanks for the link to Cherry Tree. It looks cool.

  You're welcome. I'll try it when I get a chance. It's nice to hear Microsoft had done a good job with OneNote in iOS instead of getting away with a half baked port.

I use SimpleNote, its dead simple text notes, not a full replacement for OneNote of course, but it suits my needs and has an open api.

  I use and love it also :) But it doesn't satisfy all my note taking needs so I use it mostly for sharing and storing short-lived texts that I need to access from my phone. I heard Simplenote developers was also thinking about a native & offical Linux client. I can't wait to try it out.
