Wait, you mean "Mac user who doesn't find *Mac* intuitive"? I spent a
year as an OSX guy (way back) and ultimately came to the same
conclusion: I couldn't do half of what I wanted without it seeming to
fight me at every turn. And it always put up a damn good fight, too.
I've used 10.7 since then, and it seems to have only gotten goofier. (At
least it's easy to disable the backwards-scrolling.)

Even moving the mouse pointer across the screen was (and still is) an
effort, no matter what the sensitivity setting. It's no wonder so many
Mac users swear by the touchpad - that's the only pointing device where
OSX's acceleration is non-broken enough to *let* you move from one end
of the screen to the other in *one* motion instead of three or four
*and* still be able to hit a button-sized target without surgeon-like
hand control.
