OK, this guy obviously went into this experience not wanting to like the mac.
First of all, installation is a no-brainer. Once you click a link for an app, Safari downloads and automounts the dmg, leaving you with the simple task of dragging it into the application folder. How is dragging a new application into a folder called "Applications" counterintuitive?
Second, I've used many macs and I've never had a single problem with the dual-screen setup. This issue was something environmental in your case, I believe.

I think the larger point is, if that is the biggest usability barrier in adopting an entirely different operating system, the Mac UI people are doing something right.
