You know of the F-key trick, no?

[fairly good], I wouldn't even hesitate to say, "Stay with OS X!". OS X is
built around the Mach kernel, which is light years ahead of the monolithic
kernel architecture of Linux. Also, OS X is built for the Mac hardware,
albeit nowadays it's getting to be commodity hardware. I'd certainly try and
find a better window manager than the sickening twm, but, hey, X11 is
already there baby!
