One thing you'll notice is that everything is seeminglessly tied together. Say,

- AIM information in "Address Book" will show the first and last name in iChat instead of the ugly screen names.
- Birthdays entered in "Address Book" can also show up as a "reminder" in iCal.
- Play around with F9, F10, F11, F12.
- Setup "Hot Corners" in System Preferences so you can ask your mac to do something when your mouse hits the certain corner of the screen... (Can be annoying sometimes if corner is accidentally hit)
- Drag and drops are never been easier in Mac, if you drag a file over a folder, and hold it over the folder for a tag, it will open the folder automatically for you to drop into it, or its sub-folders.
- You can also drag and drop while operating Expose features
- Use iPhoto, you'll love how it help you organize your photos
- Use iCal, you can even sync caldendar data to your cell phone (cerntain ones)
- Dashboard (F12) or in your case it might be (FN + F12), is very handy and useful... exactly why MS implemented it in Vista.

Well these are from tip of my head... somethings that I think have over Windows. Have fun!
