- not provide a cancel mechanism when changing system preferences (though iTunes does) - place minimize, maximize, close buttons to the left of the window when most applications require the use of window scrolling (which is on the right) - make the default key for Expose F9 which is *not* easy to hit with the left hand (you generally use a mouse with Expose and most people are right-handed so left hand is most often on the keyboard when using a mouse) - require holding a mouse button to select a specific minimized application window when the application has multiple windows open (in windows, the taskbar groups all windows to a single tab and can be accessed with no holding. kde/gnome just have separate tabs - if I remember correctly)

For good UI, why does OSX:
- not provide a cancel mechanism when changing system preferences (iTunes does)
- place minimize, maximize, close buttons to the left of the window when most applications require the use of window scrolling (which is on the right)
- make the default key for Expose F9 which is *not* easy to hit with the left hand (you generally use a mouse with Expose and most people are right-handed so left hand is most often on the keyboard)
- require holding a mouse button to select a specific minimized application window when the application has multiple windows open (in windows, the taskbar groups all windows to a single tab and can be accessed with no holding. kde/gnome just have separate tabs - if I remember correctly)
