MacBook Pro vs Windows based Computers

Having never used a Mac , the IOCT allow students to borrow a Mac and I decided to give the Mac a try.
I have had the laptop for nearly a week and after a call to my ISP regarding setting up the wireless access, it’s been an experience.
In my opinion the Mac is very good for surfing the web as its very quick but have not found the "magical Mac" feeling.
Its navigation is laborious - you have to navigate the mouse from the right bottom corner - if using scroll bar - clear across the screen to the top left.
I am used to windows and feel that I will stick with them as I know all the shortcut keys etc and feel that the Mac would constitute too much unlearning to relearn !!
Thanks IOCT for the trial though !!
