Pretty much the one and only good thing about work forcing us to switch from Linux laptops to Macbooks.
I hated the Command + C and Command + V for Copy / Paste until I realized it meant not clobbering ^C in the terminal. Instantly loved it.
The biggest issue I have with it is that I have Linux on all my personal systems and OSX on my work laptop and sometimes switch rapidly between them.
My fingers don't seem to adapt as quickly, though, and I often press the wrong combination between them.
Yeah, they knew what they were doing back then…
The mixed used of the command key and CTRL on Macs has tricked me to pressing command+w in a terminal window quite a few times.
