What I find frustrating is that "as expected" on a Mac differs from
PC.  On a Mac the Home takes you to the top of the screen, on a PC it
takes you to the start of a line of text.  Really, that's the problem
people find when coming from PC to Mac.
Your choices become learning the "Apple way", remapping the keys, or
chucking your Max out of the window in frustration.

I've been switched to Mac recently and should I do like my MBP alot,
Apple REALLY loves to do things differently than everyone else.  I've
also been working on an iPhone app, and even the language and
vocabulary they use for Objective C is very very different than that
of every other language I have ever been exposed to so far in my
career.  Simple terms like "interfaces" and "refactoring" mean
something completely different in Apple-land.
