I couldn't get my head round the lack of right click on Macs.
I am a techno-deacon, though.

This is my reason for hating them.
I had to use one as four years when I worked for a magazine. Bad, angry times. Still, I left the place with a box full of free G3 RAM sticks, so I think I came out on top. Somehow.

I hated them back in those days too, always crashing, Quark Express was a pile of shit, and now it's more or less redundant.
Adobe has stayed ahead of the game, best move they did was take on macromedia. Worst thing they did was make enemies with the company that gave them popularity to begin with; apple. Apple are right that Flash a curser based technology and iOS has skipped that, thus making the two not nesserarly incompatable, but they are against eachother ethos-wise.

The hardest transition was moving CTRL to CMD, it's right next to the spacebar where the alt key is.
For shortcuts like B (bold), C (copy), P (paste).... etc, but now I'm used to it and find it hard to go back.

Multi touch really is the future, by such a long way, Microsoft really needs to get its hardware around that, and I know they will, it's just they're so late in the day.
