Sorry, but this is just stupid. For us that live in the real world and are forced to use certain windows apps, why should we be forced to have both a PC and a Mac when there is now a way to do away with the PC?
It will not undermine the Mac platform. As someone else said elsewhere "Consumers don't compete for developers. It's the other way around".
As long as Mac users want Mac software there will be mac software. As I elaborate more about on my blog: http://eriksrantsandraves.blogspot.com/2006/04/finally-windows-officially-supported.html
Oh and about the apple key. I find the position so much more practical than the ctrl key. I rather wish than windows adopted the mac configuration (as if that is ever going to happen).
Regardless Ctrl on Macs and PC often have the same function, e.g. in the terminal. So I think switching position of the Ctrl key would just be confusing. Apple and Ctrl key is used differently than Alt and Ctrl key on Windows so there is no way simply switching the position will make the switching between macs and windows will be effortless.
2) Save button on toolbars???!! I can not believe anybody think that is a good idea. After using OS X for some time I thought most people would realize how worthless it is. I think excluding the save button is evidence of how better Apple is at GUI design.
Saving and opening documents is the most common operation anybody does, and is the same across all applications. If you know just one keyboard shortcut you probably know Apple-S. So putting an button for it in the toolbar is a waste of space.
I think this is exactly one of the problems of both windows and Linxu GUI's, that there are way too many toolbar buttons. Which makes the important ones get lost in the crowd.
I think the most frequently and commonly used operations should be only accesible as keyboard shortcuts. The medium frequencey operations should be on the toolbar and the seldome used, just in the menu. This way one avoids things like 4 layers of toolbars like you see on Windows and Linux GUI's.
I don't think it is stupid that print is a toolbar button. It is an operation that everybody will find useful and needed once in a while. But since it is not used frequently , people should not have to learn its keyboard shortcut.
