Great article, but mostly terrible flaming comments. Are the new folders really getting hated on? I think they're awesome! Much less trendy than the aqua ones, certainly not as trendy as the glass ones in Vista. They're simple, stylish, elegant and best of all: timeless. They're not going to look dated in a few years from jumping on the visual hype wagon. Bring on the new cat!
Stacks are just about the same as Quick Launch or a folder of shortcuts. Chances are you CAN do these sort of things on a PC, most people just haven't asked how; they have to have features dumped in front of them, then they applaud Apple and pay them $300 for a piece of software that probably has similar sorts of features already on the market on Windows.
I disagree about Explorer. The ability to decide what appears on my left side bar on the Mac trumps pretty much any other maneuver that Explorer can handle. Also do we include Expose as part of Finder? If we did, then there would be no argument as to which I'd choose.
Surely the scrollbars are very aqua-esq too. All they've done is removed brushed metal windows but its still aqua. I must say i prefer the tiger icons.

Why would I over pay for a s**tty looking mac when I can build a kick ass PC for half the price?
