Mainly it seems harder to get to them to administer the system (as a user). I admit, maybe in general that's a good thing for most users... and certainly Apple's GUI isolates the user from the system guts even more; but on a Mac all the Unix tools are right there in a terminal/X11 window.

I find the Vista/Win7 GUI off-putting. It "distances" me from the system guts in a way I find obnoxious. But that might just be me.
