Things that annoy me on mac: - there's no volume mixer (each app having an individual volume slider) - no window snapping (before I bought BetterTouchTool, which includes window snapping, I had windows everywhere and it was just a mess) - column view in Finder is nice, it would be really useful to pick a new "root" folder for the viewer, or to move one directory up from the "root"

Things that annoy me on windows: - No tabs in explorer. Imagine having a web browser that didn't have tabs, that's how bad this is. - No preview in explorer. Mac has this awesome feature where you press space and it gives a quick overview of most files (not only images but also pdfs, .docx, ...). - No column view. Column view makes it much easier to navigate across directories, and back and forth between subdirectories of a root directory.

I use both and really miss the spacebar Quicklook on Windows, I found this 3rd party app that adds it https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook and works better than I expected.
