I agree. If you switch to the mac with the mindset that you are looking for 
something similar to Vista, you will either fail or take a very, very long time 
to do anything productive with your new computer. I know it sounds rather 
stupid, but just forget about everything you know about your windows machine 
and learn voiceover. Then you will really be able to decide if you like it 
better or not.
