I haven't used X.

This is what everyone says. I hate Macs, but I haven't used them in years. Do you think OS X is exactly like what you used on Macs years ago? And just because Macs come with one-button mice doesn't mean you're confined to them. Does everybody keep the mouse that comes with their computer? I currently have a 6-button Kensignton mouse with a scroll wheel. I installed it by plugging it into the USB port on my keyboard and it worked. I can right-click just like on a PC.
As for no effective way of finding programs, that is what I'm talking about with customization. I put my Applications folder in the Dock so I always have instant access to all of my applications. Same with my documents. I've included a picture of this setup since you haven't seen how the Dock works before. It's a pdf file zipped up since taking screenshots results in pdfs on my computer and I don't have Photoshop on this one to make it a jpeg.
