Resizing windows in OS X

[janstett]

From the day i switched to MAC my mouse is making much more kilometers and at least 5 time more clicks!

First reason: is not possible to resize windows from all sides (if you are working with many windows and frequent comparing/monitoring things, this is OMFG)

I hear this is finally coming in Lion (next version of OSX).

I discovered another little niggle about OSX. If you have two folders with the same name in different places and try to merge them, it obliterates the old one and leaves only the new one.

Specifically, let's say I have a master collection of images in a safe place called CARS. In another place I have a staging area for pictures I download from the internet with the same name, since I precategorize them.

If you drop the staging area CARS folder on the master collection CARS folder, it wipes out all the old content and only leaves the staging area CARS content. Obviously Windows doesn't behave this way. By all logic OSX should also merge the folders' content. I lost many hours restoring from backup because of this behavior.

What? You didn't read the message? It said "Do you want to replace it...?"
