I'm a OS-X user since Leopard. I did the switch from FreeBSD because of the need for professional photo editing software. I can tell in the bast 12 months my OS-X has frozen 6-7 times (Yes I called the customer service, did hardware tests). Before Yosemite and Mavericks, the years before the last one my MAC freeze on me maybe twice.

Welcome in the club!

People mentioned: iTerm2 and SourceTree, these are indeed very good. I want to recommend a few must have editors: - Espresso, highly recommended for web development (http://macrabbit.com/espresso/ $75) - TextWrangler, very slick editor for all well known programming languages(https://itunes.apple.com/hu/app/textwrangler/id404010395?mt=..., free)

Something else: www.macports.org - it is like FreeBSD ports, you can install vi, mc, nmap and almost any application ported from Linux/BSD
