I had been reading posts about switching from one platform to other like from Windows to Mac, Windows to Linux or Linux to Mac etc but it is for first time, I came across a post which is about the consequences of switching from Mac to Linux – one I expected the least. The post is about the things writer is missing after switching from Mac and he has listed 10 of them. They are –
- Dashboard
- Quicksilver
- Adium
- Professional Graphics Software
- TextMate
- Dictionary
- Quicktime
- Bluetooth Support and Syncing
- System-wide spell checking
- Smart Trackpad
Let me recall what 5 best that I have been missing about XP while working on Vista…
- Start Button – no more start written there
- Application Compatibility – still many have to
- Up button in Windows Explorer bar
- Remote Desktop – Vista doesn’t let you do it to the lower versions of Windows
- Disk Space – XP occupies negligible space as compared to Vista
