I license OS X from Apple and dump Vista...
How could a company put so much money and so much time into an effort and come up with something so lame and mediocre? There?s only one company that really knows how to design operating systems, and it isn?t Microsoft. To prove my point, who is always copying who, and very poorly no less?
