I've had a series of obsolete Macs from the original onwards, but I could never use them as my main computer because I couldn't deal with the volcano. Windows Explorer isn't bad. At least Windows has a sane key-bindings scheme as opposed to the Mac's reluctant transition from meta-key phobic that's left us with a hodgepodge of function/control/opt/command/corner/click bindings that don't follow any kind of sane scheme. But combined with UNIX under the hood, it's closer to "the best of both worlds" than just about anything I've used. It's just... still got some issues.There's stuff above here
