LOL, I still don't get what you mean, a screwing would be good.
Windows Explorer is Finder. Thats all it is. Most don't use it as its stuck away in Start-All Programs-Accessories-Windows Explorer. I pinned mine to the task bar as I lived in Windows Explorer.
The app icons are all different, admittedly very plain compared to OS X.
"Click an app and it opens in a tab" Open an app and it opens, either full screen or the last windows size you had it on, and the last screen (if you use multi screens) you had it on. The app icon will also appear in the task bar, aka dock. So you may have 3 apps open, either full screen so you only see the on screen app, cascaded, or windows set so you see some or all apps. The icons are on the task bar so you can choose to bring that app up front if you have not set the windows to see the app. At work I have probably 8 apps running, including one IE app which I have 6 tabs. Two screens. Some windows are set t see them all the time, others I want full or fuller screen so i click the taskbar icon. The same must happen in OS X .
I have a reverse question. In OSX, say I have 6 apps open. The active app is full screen, how do I access one other? Click the Dock app? Thats like clicking the task bar.
NB. Im not trying to counter what you say, just trying to help your migration to Windows.

All the apps I use. The ones I log into. Their start bar icon in the task bar thing is all windows explorer. It's all the same. Even the calculator. Then one though lol is a Java icon. I assume it's built wkth Java but it should have its own icon not the Java one. (In the words of my prof it's the coffee cup app) but that's just silly. I'm used to every app having its own icon. It seems this company or windows UI I am not certain which but they just don't care. I goto the start bar and click an app and it opens in a tab next to windows explorer and in the start bar err task bar I select that window of tabs by selecting an explorer icon. It's weird. To a Mac user anyway.

All the apps are built in it. Calculator is built in it. The proprietary apps all have shells that are identical to the internet explorer shell and in the dock they are so the same. It's frustrating. I'm used to dock icons being different. And bank on classic os there wasn't a dock.
