Hahahaha, talk about Fan kids on the block, youre it
Sir, you smack of wishful thinking about so many views,
having not been a Mac OS X user you seem to know so
much about nothing. You gather facts from sources "you
think" are reliable, when in fact any survey, anywhere, can
be made to give the results you are looking for.

Until you are a user of OS X, and then have time to
compare its less "chatty" interface, and less clicks to get
something done, you will not be able to judge that Vista is
a step backwards in usability. Things that used to be one
click in XP, are More in Vista, mostly to protect the user
from the operating system, which is something they are
often "operating on" to keep it up to date, tuned up, or
scanned. That Mac OS X is an exclusive and more secure
club by design, with little hope of getting a virus seems to
escape your simple minded view.

Apparently you get great pride out of keeping windows
clean and running smooth, possibly you had a yard full of
cars to tinker with as kid, and this gives you fond
memories of being young and having lots of time to
dawdle.

While you are clicking, and agreeing to the latest Vista
EULA, or confirming you are sure you want to download a
file, or get the spyware scanner updated, Mac users are 1
paragraph into our email or letter writing.

OS X does not second guess us, distract us from what we
want to do with nagware, nor reminders to clean up our
desktop.....you might learn one day, until then, its good to
know there are still some stoolies like you keeping my
Microsoft stock barely above water.
