Personal bias but full screen mode is one of the things about how Windows defaults that drives me nuts. I abhor full screen mode and it also defeats a major part of OS X efficiency / ease of use, drag and drop content between open docs even across different applications.

Tip, hit Command key with left thumb and while holding it hold the Tab key. Icons for all open apps pop up. While still holding Command tap the Tab key to cycle through the open apps. Adding shift key reverses the order. Really useful when you are copy pasting from one app to the other. A quick Command + Tab hit will cycle back and forth between the 1st and 2nd position apps.

Command plus Tilde (right above Tab) does the same thing to open windows within the same app.
