Re: Quick Mac guide for switchers from Windows: Adding to Walter

Hey, thanks for explaining the logic behind the close button! I've been a Mac user for 6 years now, and I could never fully figure out why Apple chose this behavior. Personally, I don't agree with their decision, (I may, for example want to "put away" my Mail Viewer window by closing it; if I reactivate Mail, it re-opens it. I may also want to "put away" Calculator temporarily by closing it.), your explanation makes a lot of sense.

Having said that, I miss the "Put Away" menu item from pre-OS X. It was so...cute!
