Another perspective
Perhaps on the other end of the spectrum...I am a designer who has used a Mac for more than a decade. Building OS X on Unix technology has made learning Unix a little less intimidating for me.
From the little I have already learned, I am sold on Unix for scalability and power, yet I'm still very much an Apple loyalist for graphics. OS X has truly brought together the best of both worlds for me as a web designer/developer: All of the versatility of available GUI software now with the power to integrate with Open Source applications such as Apache server, MySQL, Tomcat, an array of Java development tools etc...and all on my same old Mac!

macptopbm
macptopbm(1) General Commands Manual macptopbm(1)
NAME
macptopbm - convert a MacPaint file into a portable bitmap
SYNOPSIS
macptopbm [-extraskip N] [macpfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a MacPaint file as input. Produces a portable bitmap as output.
OPTIONS
-extraskip
This flag is to get around a problem with some methods of transferring files from the Mac world to the Unix world. Most of these
methods leave the Mac files alone, but a few of them add the "finderinfo" data onto the front of the Unix file. This means an extra
128 bytes to skip over when reading the file. The symptom to watch for is that the resulting PBM file looks shifted to one side.
If you get this, try -extraskip 128, and if that still doesn't look right try another value.
All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
