I switched from the windows/linux world to the mac and what your friends tell you is right. You have to "live the experience". Looking at the technical side and the features, it will not give you more than any other OS. It's just a different way of doing the same things. For switching between windows of the same app, use "Apple-<". Also, there is a "Show all windows from current app" action that you can bind to a screen corner. For a simple text editor, I use Smultron. Regarding fink... I use it occasionally, but don't enjoy it too much. Nice read.
