First whine... Mail's horrible IMAP support. How hard can it be? I keep switching back and forth between Mail and Thunderbird every time one set of annoyances gets too frustrating. If Mail just had better IMAP support (instead of those idiotic stationary features that are being added in Leopard), I'd use it consistently forever. Now that Thunderbird will have tagging built in and patches exist to integrate it with the OS X address book, Apple may be losing a Mail user permanently in the near future.

Second whine... Why has iSync never truly worked? It's such a great idea, but it just isn't done.

Third whine... Selective enabling or disabling of scritping in Safari is far too inconvenient to be useful. Apple needs to take a look at the NoScript plugin for Firefox and blatantly copy it. I'd switch back to Safari in a second if they did.

Fourth whine... no ultra-compact laptop. I don't need a DVD drive all the time. I don't need ports other than USB all the time. What I need is something super small, super light and possessed of good battery life. Back in the PPC days, I understood why they couldn't offer a subnotebook. Now that' we're on Intel chips, why not offer an ultra-light notebook model in the vein of Toshiba's Japanese line-up and really show PC folks how to compute in style? If I wanted a 17" inch screen, why in the world would I buy a laptop?

Fifth whine (well, not a whine so much as an idea for improvement)... Apple help sucks. The online documentation accessed by the "help" menu is pretty lame. You can't tell me that for all the money the spend on great design they can't hire a few decent technical journalists to fix this problem. Why can't O'Reilly just publish a OS X Help menu written by David Pogue? Why does online help always suck? Put the Missing Manual in the product, with context-sensitive interactivity. All the information is already being written by dozens of authors with book deals. Why not headhunt one of them to write Apple Help menus? Seriously, how hard can this be considering that publishers are already doing it anyway?
