Reading this I remember some weeks ago when I searched for a not so feature rich graphics (painting) programm for OS X. As an old linux user I started using gimp on OS X. But I soon realized that click intensive tasks with X11 on OS X are really nerve strappling.
To give you an idea. To select a tool from toolbar you had to click once to give the focus to the toolbar window and a second time to select the tool. Back to the canvas you have to click once for the focus and one more to apply the tool. This torture even gets bigger the more gimp palettes you use...:-)
In the meanwhile I got new creative suite 3 which is kinda affordable in the education version.:-)
