 I can double-click on a document which opens the application and opens
 the document ready for whatever processing the application does. I can
 use command keys to intiate actions in single strokes that depending
 on the PC interface, usually requires several keystrokes (arrow keys)
 to locate the command and execute it there are probably others as well
 that the interface on the Macintosh allows that speed up certain
 operations on the Mac over its PC counterparts. And perhaps some vice-versa,
 though I think this rare..
