    Gotta go Mac OSX here. Was an Windows 2000 and XP guy for a few years, but once I got turned on to the mac, I'll never go back.

    Absolutely superior operating system. Apple is innovative and original, and Microsoft copies, makes slight changes, and then resells it as it's own. I gotta give them props for licensing windows to the masses. One of the greatest business moves of modern times. Even though windows was and always will be crap. I mean really, how can a company spend 5 or 6 years and 6 billion dollars on a new operating system that's a poor copy of some other companies and has tons of issues, forcing people who won't open their mind to non window operating systems to be stuck with something that is over 8 YEARS OLD!!! That's ancient in technological terms.

    I saw this ad on tv for the first time today. Stupid.

    XP is the best I've used. Vista is terrible.

    I still have XP on my computer but my son has Vista and he has grown to prefer it. Once you get used it, he says it is better than XP.

    define better. Vista is still slower, buggier and pain in the ass securitywise compared to XP

    Steve Jobs had no idea what a mouse was until Xerox showed him.

    Ahh yes, the Xerox story. Very true, and you help me make my point in a way speaking of innovation. Xerox was the originator of the drop down menus and "windows" that we are all so accustomed to today. The point, though, is that Apple (Steve Jobs) saw what they had and realized that it would one day be the future of computing. Just like being the first computer company to not include a floppy drive with their computers, going it with CD drive only. Apple leads the way. Whether they invent the technology or are the first to implement the technology. They didn't invent the MP3 player, but they just about perfected it. Innovation.

    I like Apple for the fact they are always looking to improve and invent. And I also used to be a huge acid dropper back in my day like Steve Jobs was.

    But I like Windows for the fact it was already in my PC when I got it back in 95.

    So even though BMW makes a better car to many people are used to the Chevy, or toyota. So anything new or you have to learn is not good for the average PC user. That is why Vista was doom to fail since most people today are still trying to learn how to use XP. now they have to get more RAM and other ?

    People are like Wallmart ,they want things cheap, fast and 24/7

    Apple is like Spencers gifts, they are of high quality,not that cheap, and are only open from 8am till 7pm.

    The sad part is the person who had the original vision of todays computer world sits alone in a single wide trailer eating spam.
