but damn I wish Windows had a UI that pretty.

Well, this site tries to help out with that.

Overall my impressions of OS X are mixed. I like the Unix core, and the way things work. I'm still getting used to the "Macintosh way" of doing things, but OS X isn't as harsh a transition as going to OS 9 would be. I'm basically using a used iMac to see if I really like things on this side, so I can then decide if I'm getting a Powerbook after the next revision or two down the road. (I figure my PIII800 laptop work gave to me should do for now). I have found replacements for almost everything I do on my laptop now, so the transition should go well.

And so much of this I owe to that one guy sitting at the opposite end of the table from me at the USA owners meet. I had a crappy beta of XP to show off, while he brought OS X on a Powerbook . It rekindled my interest enough to start seriously looking.
