I've known that Mac had the best operating system since I saw my first Lisa. I have a Vista notebook and wish I had bought a MAcbook. Everyone complained about Win98 - it worked fine for me. I skipped ME, but XP was clearly the best MS OS ever. MS should imitate Ubuntu Gnome - give users a minimal stripped down quick OS. I also run Ubuntu and except for some key, for me, Widows programs would just run linux only. MS will keep corporate computing for a while but they are not invincible.

Windows has a lot of catch up to do before they get crushed under the wheels of *nix and Apple I think microsoft should cave in and go *nix and give up on making there own code in the long run it would probably be cheaper for them seeing how long established the *nix community is.

Thus, lowering security greatly. We cant see this affect in current Vista because current vista is a virus in itself being such a horrible OS that Microsoft released!!!! Nothing but bugs and error and annoyances in every program or feature you use in it!!! I have built my own PC recently, I want it to run Vista, but its running Ubuntu because of Vista's current state. I will run Windows 7 on it when it is released.
