I'm very new to Macs, but am very comfy in Linux. I've liked the ability on Linux to have multiple workspaces, so I can have my work windows open in one, and personal email open in another. On Linux, when you have things in multiple workspaces, alt-tabbing through open windows only shows you the apps that are open in the specific workspace you're in. This makes perfect sense to me - when I'm in my work workspace, I only want to see my work apps.
When I try this on the Mac, though, it shows all open apps in every workspace. Is there any way to make the Mac work the same way Linux (at least Ubuntu) does?
As a slight aside you may enjoy the answers on this question: Tricks and usages of Spaces
