Rob:

1) Welcome to the forum. Overall, we're a good group with whom to associate.
2) Congrats on the year model, the color, and the fact that you got an S. I'm jealous all the way around. Glove box, glass rear windscreen, bigger motor, and although your steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car, the interior looks stellar...
3) I too own a BMW and had the same thought about the braking in comparison. To fix this on your boxster will not be expensive. In addition to bleeding out all the old brake fluid, you need to swap the reinforced plastic/rubber factory brake lines with braided steel lines. You don't even need expensive ones. I purchased cheap ones from eBay and WOW!!!! the car stops on a dime now. Try it and you'll see.

I've no clue about that whine so I will not comment on it.
