Wow! I remember when Windows users would try to put Apple-style features on Windows. (Interestingly, the "dock" was first on Windows, with StarDock, etc, before OSX had theirs).


I've spent years on windows, mac, linux. I remember in my youth adding a dock with the fisheye effect on hover on Windows XP. What a blast that was :p

Nowadays i'm into workflow optimization and this alt-tab window-switching is what i found best in my personal study


Meanwhile, Mac users STILL don't get a real Delete key; they get a Backspace key mislabeled "delete."


It's been called Delete on Macs since day 1. What you call the 'Delete' key, Mac users call 'Forward Delete'.
