granted I really haven't had enough time with a Mac to be able to give a truely educated opinion on it, but lack of multiple desktops is really a killer for me

It's had it for a few years now. Look up "Spaces" and using "Mission Control" to manage your apps and see the spaces. I like the three-finger swipe to go between them, and you get the visual of the screens sliding across to keep the mental context.

Cool. I'll keep it in mind. WifeofZeugma is planning on getting a Mac soon. Don't know if I'll be able to play with it or not. :-)

I built a pretty killer (Linux) desktop last year, so I don't really expect to be getting another for the next 5 or so years. (Last one lasted for 9 years). I guess I could make my current desktop an ESXi farm :-)
