Mac is so perfect hard to find what i dislike
I think i dislike the fact installing a program is stupid
It's like drag & drop, i want a program to install the program

Hit, that's one of the major osx essences, simplicity. :D
Not only the design, also the workflow.

Don't you love to drag a drop a program which takes a few seconds, rather than getting annoyed by an Installer for minutes?

I dsiskliked some little things in the new Leopard style, like the blue lamps in the Dock and so on, but I found progs that cured all thse problems. Only the creation of thumbails if you open a picture drawer seems to be slower.

I think that OS X is the most powerful, because it uses the lightweight yet very powerful Linux Kernel for its basement,
and on top of that, which is missing about Linux, there's a perfectly designed GUI.
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't OSX actually based on a BSD unix rather than linux, or at least thats what I'd thought for sometime, and infact what wikipedia claims.

Still, it is very nice though from my dabbling on parents macs they've bought recently.

I don't like that it isn't quite so easy to compile and install things as it is with linux, but then, there are a lot more apps available for osx with similar functionality to windows ones than there are for linux, so rock <-me->hard place, at least for that part anyway.

OSX is awesome! Though it may not be for everyone. My BIGGEST dislike is that it can only legally installed on APPLE branded hardware and no support for regular PCs. It could also use a little bit more mainstream software. I am hoping APPLE would release a version of Leopard for the white box PC supporting at least the most popular hardware. No more fiddling with kext and bootloaders or whatever. They probably have a bigger OS marketshare than actually being reported now anyway. With so many people trying to get their PC to work as hackintoshes. Well they did make a transition from PPC to x86. I am sure when the time is right they will make the move to the mainstream PC hardware users. APPLE already has a bunch of people working on getting it to work on regular PCs for FREE. All they need to do is brush up some rough work.
