I switched to a Mac at work about 6 weeks ago. Finally getting up to speed. The trackpad changes have been the hardest for me to get a handle on. I still have issues/slowness in navigating the finder. 20 years of windows habits are hard to break. I had a license for fireworks on my pc, and I miss that for photo editing and cropping. preview gets the job done, but takes me considerably longer. (not a platform difference, but it is slowing me down) Outlook on the Mac sucks hard. The loss of tortoise built in to the os/windows explorer/finder is hugely missed.
The terminal, and command line, is a godsend. Eclipse is blazingly fast on the mac compared to the pc. and there are a few old pc programs I cannot get to run on the mac (genealogy stuff), and cannot get emulators/winebottles to work. But overall, besides the inefficiencies with an old dog learning new tricks, I am very glad for the switch. I do like the directions MS is moving with the Windows8/html5 direction. I am following that closely. I think it is a good move.
