Finder has to be the most frustrating about OSX if you're moving from Windows.
The whole UI of it is just weird, no matter which setting or view - it looks like its all aesthetics and very little utility.
Spesifically sorting is overly annoying. I want all my files to be sorted folders first in alpha order, files that start with (. _ 0-1 etc..) should be up top.
In Windows: 'AFolder' will show up after '_BFolder'
In OSX: 'AFolder' shows up first, and '_BFolder' gets treated like a 'B'
I can get similar behavior by ordering by Name, but then I get files mixed w/ folders - completely not user friendly.
Even MS' windows explorer does a much better job in my opinion..
