I recently started a new job and opted for a mac thinking "it's a unixy system, so it'll be more like my home linux setup". I have some regrets. The forced scroll acceleration is particularly intolerable; I had to find LinearMouse to get rid of that.

Another infuriating weirdness is window focus. Alt(sorry, _command_)-tabbing to a window brings all windows of that application to the front, possibly obscuring other windows you have around. And if you switch virtual desktops to one with a fullscreen window while you have another window of that application open on another monitor, it won't focus the fullscreen one you just switched to but rather the other window.
