It has changed. The reason was said to be spotlight. But the desktop search engines on Linux - e.g. beagle - have no problem with mbox. And I think it's a bit unelegant to use a file for each message. That 's what mail does now.
I have a MB and tested mail for a couple of months but it couldn't satisfy me (I was used to evolution). Now I switched to Thunderbird and like it nearly as much as evolution and the best is that the mbox-storage can easily be synchronised with my linux and windows systems. And some people say that the look and feel is even more OS-X than that of mail... But this is more about safari/firefox and I have to say that I use firefox despite the significant longer startup time (which can be reduced with camino).
The core of Blender is its database concept. The UI is exchangable and it will be refactored during the course of this year. You're right, blender is about UI, but what that really means is that there are some basic guidelines (e.g. non-overlapping, muscle memory)
Here is a statement of a blender developer:
"This may be shocking, but we kind of like the interface the way it is. You see, we have the source code. If we wanted it different, we would have changed it already. Could it be better? Sure. Will it evolve over time? Without a doubt!
Though it seems unfamiliar, Blender's interface is based on principles from Jef Raskin's "The Humane Interface". There are other applications with a different user interface paradigm. I'm sure you can find one you like. "
You did not even try it yourself? Blender has a huge community (www.blenderartists.org/forum) and many people use Windows. I mainly use Linux and OS X but I installed blender on Windows without any problems.
you don't read out all mirrors individually. In the link there is the following example:
you have 65536 Pixels but you do only 1300 Measurements. It's not a processor that
does the "mathematical operation"; it's the optics!
But nevertheless you're right in one point: more Mirrors -> better Resolution.
It is wrong to think of the mirrors as pixels. They are not read individually, instead they are used to "integrate" the light of a given pattern. Then these "integrals" have to be reversed to gain the image.
Slashdot Mirror
it's even simpler: you're screwed because you bought the iphone....

look and feel != functionality
but perhaps "some people" should talk more about look than feel....
Anyways, I don't like mail.

blender for windows comes with a bundled python-dll, so it's not necessary to install it unless you want more advanced python modules.
