I have been using Mac at home since 2005 or so. I refused the laptop the office
wanted to give me, preferring to use my own Macbook Air. In the past several
years, the only piece of software I have wanted to install that was not
available for the Mac was TRAMO, an econometrics package developed by Banco de
España but also used at the US Census Bureau and other places. So fairly
obscure stuff. That was the ONLY such experience I have had.
Cheers,
