Win98 Ouch LOL
The one thing that I notice about using a Mac verses using Windows is how many applications I keep open so as to multi task when I working. It is not uncommon for me to 20+ applications open at once.
You hide a running application and its windows so your workspace is not cluttered. Basically Macs are application centric where Windows is window centric. What happens is each application becomes its own workspace. You can also work pretty much the same as you would in Windows but it is much faster and easier not to. The hardest part is getting out of the habit of closing windows. Instead you just hide them for instant access later.
Here is a screen shot of my desktop with all my apps hidden and I added in labels so that you will not what stuff does in ImageReady.

Here is my desktop with all the apps un-hidden and with Expose showing all the open windows.

I don't want to turn this thread into a Mac verses PC thread, both have advantages and I actually do own both. Just thought I'd post Mac info for anyone interested.
