Yea, I only use Office on my Windows Notebook, so that may be why I don't see as many issues with it as the other user. Sounds like a basic thing, but no other software does it even closely. I have thousands of pages of mainly MCSA and MCSE course material in it for teaching, and you really just type a few letters and it shows you all occurrences in all notebooks in a split second, one click and you are right in the page at the correct spot, all the time. OneNote is certainly far from elegant or Mac-like, but it works extremely well and it has an amazing search feature. I could never warm up to Evernote (or to syncing my notes to free-anything) and their desktop apps are not to my liking. Well, MS made great progress on the Mac and iOS apps recently, maybe we will see these features at some point (there is at least no technical reason for them not being there, as other apps do it just fine). Their iOS extension does not do anything else than sending the link to OneNote, which is better than nothing, but really not want I want most of the time. The one in the desktop Windows version of One Note is great too, but unfortunately not available on the Mac or any other version. That is a valid point, and why I still use Circusponies Notebook on the Mac - it has the best clipping service I came across.
