As a life long PC/unix user I'm completely unimpressed with Mac OS. The hardware, in my case a G5 powermac, is beautiful, but the OS is very pedestrian. For years I've been hearing about how Mac "just works" yet when I need something more than viewing a picture I need Adobe or some other 3 party $$ software. Maybe it's my resistance to drink the cool aid (commit to iTunes and iPhoto) rather than use simple directories to organize my stuff, but I'm ready to pull the trigger on a Craigs list ad for the PowerMac and go back to something I can trust.
Plenty of OS stuff available.

Photo editing, get the GIMP.
