I wouldn't say weird but its certainly something different to what your used to, new learning curve, I haven't looked back since switching, I don't even have windows on my main PC anymore, the laptop I have but rarely use has XP on it, I booted it up this week and it told me the anti-virus was out of date, 15-10-2008 when I last updated it, and that was the last time it was used :eek:
