Perhaps it's the sleek, white design of the notebook
Black MacBook looks much better, but white is okay if you have bad taste.

Is it true that with some programs, you sometimes have to find Mac-specific versions? What's up with that?
You have to use Mac-specific versions of all programs. Windows programs naturally don't work in OS X, just like Linux programs don't work in Windows. It's a different operating system. However, if you need some Windows programs that aren't available on Mac, you can just use a Windows emulator like Parallels Desktop. It works very well, you can open it in another window while working in OS X, or you can boot right into Windows and use it like a normal Windows laptop.

I've used a MacBook for some half a year now, and well, OS X is nice, what else can I say. It works well, but frankly so does Windows unless you're an idiot. OS X is prettier though. The best part about MacBook is not the software, but the laptop itself. It's very nicely designed and just looks good, unlike 95% of other laptops. It's also very sturdy, I've had virtually zero problems with it so far, whereas my previous laptop just had one after another (non-working USB ports, keys getting flimsy and falling off, overheating, touchpad problems).

Jam it back in, in the dark.
Nothing wrong with not being strong
Nothing says we need to beat what's wrong
Nothing manmade remains made long
That's a debt we can't back out of
