Compared to what?  I'm not saying that the Mac or it's imitator Windows 
is great, but I've always found the Mac to be very intuitive for most 
things.  The problem with the 2 OSs, for me, is that they tend to look 
and behave a lot a like, but then NOT.  It's the parts that look like 
they should work the same, but don't that bug me.  Are you looking for a 
UNIX command line interface?  There's always OSX if you're looking for 
such things in a commercial OS.  I'd go into the lack of music software, 
at this time, for that platform, but I think we've been there.  I'm in 
OSX most of the time, and switch to OSX for audio.  It's not the best 
solution, but I'm being patient.
