Dude, the edit button. Please use it.
There are programs to tune Windows' Cleartype, but it won't end up quite the same as OSX fonts.

Now, if only there was a way to fudge OS X's font rendering...

I don't know, but when I opened the laptop from sleep, I was greeted with a black screen.

Nice. How did you do that?
-
Aaaaaaaaand I suppose I managed to crash OS X just now.

On the other hand, what's neutral might be subjective.
I find the default calibration to be too warm. Way too warm. And the gamma seems to be cranked to be a bit too dark.
The advanced tools are a bit of an eye sore to use, compared to Windows 7's. I tweak from there, too.

You'll find the OSX side of things should have a higher gamma setting than Windows (unless the Bootcamp drivers fix that). It makes all of the colours look crisper and more vivid while remaining a neutral temperature. The IPS Panels on the Pros are awesome. The Airs not so much, but still better than most.
My main frustration is that the Pro 13" STILL only sports a 1280x800 screen. I mean, 1440x900 I could understand. Oh well. Not like I'll be upgrading for a long time, anyway. Need to save my moneys. :D

Heck, by the time everything is down, I would have experience in
Windows 98
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Windows 8
OS X Lion
Android 2.3
Android 4.0
Windows Phone 7.5

Guess so.
In fact, I find the stuff I bought in the bundle to be extremely useful in one way or another.
Some monitor calibration later, my eyes no longer hurt. Must be the crisper text and neutral greys. No more baked sun!

Ease of use is subjective. You'll learn OSX in no time if you use it regularly. For a lot of things, it's actually easier and has a lot of features that Windows sorely lacks.
Of course if you need Windows apps, then it's a no-brainer.
