    Any "switchers" out there have buyers remorse?

    No, I mean can you tap the touchpad to replicate a click, like you can on a PC?

    How does it differ?

    Let's say I wanna edit a particular pic in Photoshop. In Windows, I open My Pictures, then the particular folder, then drag the pic into Photoshop.

    How does it work on a Mac?

    Yes, you can tap on the touchpad to make a left-click as well. And you can tap the touchpad with two fingers to create a right-click. Very useful :).

    As for Photoshop, many times its even easier than Photoshop on Windows. If you want to edit a picture in your computer, then just click Open...find the file and "Open". But if you want to edit an outside image such as a file on a flash drive or in the internet, just drag that image to the Photoshop icon on the Dock and it automatically opens a window in Photoshop for that image.
