I'm using Mac for about 1 year and must say that it was not an easy way to swith from PC. Actually, sometimes I still have to launch Virtual PC to run some app that I don't have on Mac. For example, MS Access or some data format convertors I need to use while working. Another hand is it wasn't so much easier to get accustomed to Mac OS X and Finder. On Windows many advanced users don't use Explorer for file operations, because it's multiple-window interface sometimes makes you drown in them and many of these users used windows from the first version and even before... when there was't any Windows and there was DOS and everybody used apps like Norton Commander. Later they used Total Commander for Windows... I think that many of such users (like me) switching to Mac are having a lot of head ache, because they can't any app like Total Commander for Mac. So was me before I tried to search Internet for something like that and typed something like 'Total Commander for Mac OS X' in Google and found the app named Disk Order 1.1. It looks like TC but maken for Mac OS X and it's action is very similar to above mentioned file manager. It hepled me greatly to get used to Mac. I think it's a real way for users like me to switch to Mac. My neighbor switched :-)...
