It could be something to do with memory or sommink? But apart from selecting different windows in the task bar, I used to find switching between a bit of a pain. It would stall/hang, or close down. If it was a heavy app, you would regret accidentally clicking on that one when you meant for another one, and have to wait for it to load, before you can click away. I dunno, like I said, probably memory issues, but I doubt it because I've also experienced on new computers too.
Ah right. Yeah, that's a combination of memory, processor, and the number of programs running.

In Mac, you point the mouse towards the corner of the screen and it shows all open windows, smoothly without hesitation. It's not a big thing, but it's a little thing that makes computing less painful.
Without seeing it to check, that sounds rather similar to a new feature in Windows 7. Which I find to be totally pointless, if not bloody annoying at times.
