never used to be a mac fan until OS X came out, specifically panther. leopard has come a long way from 10.3 series and with every revision it gets even better. i dont plan on reverting to windows any time soon.
couple things that bother me: Shift+Apple+N shortcut to create a new folder in the finder always creates it in the parent window, not within a subfolder if one is selected, no built in settings to show hidden files, those damn .DS_Store files that always crop up on network shares, SVN repositories, etc. (yes i know you can somewhat disable them manually), read-only FTP via Finder... i use my own client, but why r/o? There's a few others that dont come to mind right now.
Also, the new quickview feature (click on finder item and press Spacebar) is pretty neat, but isn't very usable since you cant copy/paste from it.
This is an amazing OS, none the less. With continuous small tweaks, the low-hanging fruit if you will, it could become even better.
