But you also say that Mac/OS X has a better integration of components/hardware. As you uut it "Mac always just works". Returning to the point, I (PowerPC user) have used Aquamacs, Emacs.App, Carbon Emacs, and emacs bundled with OS X. As much as I like Aquamacs, and have contributed to it, I find Carbon Emacs (for a PowerPC user) to be closer to what I expect from emacs, especially if I am trying to share my .emacs file from other systems. In my experience, what I miss most from Aquamacs is printing, and I wish the other apps could deliver what Aquamacs delivers.
