Your basic complaint is that it doesn't work exactly like Windows. If you know how, you can do everyone of those things without hinderence... you just did not want to invest the time to learn how.

Maybe.
I’m turning into an old dog and don’t have that many new tricks left in me.
I have twenty-five years of accumulated neuromuscular reflexes on the PC/DOS/Windows, I definitely don’t have the time and probably don’t have the spare neurons left to learn all of the things I would need to know. Although I have to say, when I discovered that Mac now has the equivalent to the right mouse button, it did make doing things more simple.
I guess I just have a problem with the claims of how radically easy it is to use the Mac OS when there is a real learning curve involved when doing things outside the bounds of a program.
Now that Apple fixed our Macbook (Kudos to Apple, they replaced the defective battery out of warranty for free), I will sit down and start using it again. I will also try to keep an open mind.
They also reset my daughter iTouch for her on the same visit. Unfortunately, when she tried to sync it when she got home, it told her that her software was out of date and she had the same update failure and it is not working again. I’m going to need to research this a little further when I get some time. It’s close to an hour drive to the Apple store and I don’t know if we will get back that way for a few weeks.
I do have a little lust for the new i7 Mac laptops that have been announced.
