Uh, of course... you spend a lot of time you your OS, it's the fundamental tool of your interaction with your computer... that's why I don't like Macs, as I said before. They don't do things better. :)
... yes, one reason I like Windows is because it runs games. But I also like the OS, and think that it works well... sure, my computer crashes, freezes, etc, but it works... 4 1/2 years old and it works quite nicely, considering...
Quote:It's still OS X, but each point upgrade is considered a major upgrade. Right now they are at 10.4.6. Each 10.X.X upgrade usually contains bug fixes and security fixes similar to Windows Service Packs.
Wait, wait, upgrades about as much as Windows' free Service Packs, which you pay for, and you call this a GOOD thing?
... Apple is just as much of a racket as Nintendo is! :D (eg: Pokemon, etc) ... just with much more expensive products. :)
Seriously Apple is like MS but smaller... yet they are "cool" just because of their design mostly...
Anyway, Vista. Yeah, most of the major features are gone or already in XP, but there are a few things making it worth getting, and it is a change... and there will be stuff added to it later for sure... there always is...
