Well here is the bottom line..ask anyone who is bilingual with these things..those of us who started with Windows based computers can find things we like about that system. But once getting past the learning curve when moving to Mac, well there is no turning back. I have two Macs now. One is a big 17”Wide screen Mac Book Pro for the photo work I like to do as a hobby. But at 7 lbs it is too heavy to travel with so I just got a new MacBook 13”. This took a little getting ;used to the smaller screen but I love this little mac. I debated between this one and the 15” MacBookPro and decided for what I need to do on the road this smaller one is perfect. In the not too distant future I am going for an iMac..as my 5 year old XP is getting pretty cranky now with application problems and other quirky things.
Bottom line..let's keep this a secret..let the hackers stay after Microsoft!

But once getting past the learning curve when moving to Mac, well there is no turning back. I have dozens of computers at home and at work, Mac, Win, Linux, NetBSD, Solaris. But the vast majority of my work is done on two workstations: at the office, a WinXP desktop, and at home, a Mac Mini. I use most of the same applications on both, and administer a world-wide secure network from those two command posts with equal ease.
Personally, I'd like to have Windows Explorer instead of Finder, on my Macs. Other than that, OS-X pisses me off far less than Windows, so you can say I prefer it.
RAGE Macintosh Explorer is okay, but not quite a complete solution...
Anyway, being highly multi-lingual, I must say that Mac hardware with OS-X and VMware Fusion for all the others, is the best of all worlds.
