LinusTech is switching to an iSwitched setup on his iMac for about 30 days. Here are some tips to help him, especially since he's been using Windows for a long time. #1 Download BetterSnapTool—it fixes the snapping and double-click titlebar issues I used to find frustrating. It even lets you maximize windows by double-clicking the titlebar, just like in Windows. #2 Follow that advice—snapping on OS X is essential. Check out this guide: http://lifehacker.com/5809879/how-to-get...n-mac-os-x. #3 Take advantage of the multi-desktop feature and explore all touchpad gestures; they're really intuitive. You can use just your touchpad without a mouse unless you need it for gaming. Everyone tag Linus to this thread!

Use bootcamp to set up Windows. This method works well if you want to stick with Windows only. OS X isn’t ideal unless you’re still using an iPhone.
