Ping your lists. Interesting findings with the new windows 10 running on new Mac hardware.

Swordmaker, put in your damage control so they don’t lose their faith in Apple :-)

> Ping your lists...

Ummm, maybe, but not yet. The Mashable article isn’t accurate. Or didn’t you actually READ the kid’s blog where the original opinions and impressions were written up? That is where the kid writes:

>> Overall, UI speed is only one metric of speed, and articles claiming that I found Windows 10 to be faster than OS X are missing the point.

There is no comparison data on running the same program on both OSes. Just “impressions”. Well, a lot of people like Windows better than OS X, that’s hardly news.

And in any case, it has been a fact for many years that the best platform for running Windows is a Mac, for any given price point. Or don’t you remember all the review articles with real comparative data, and headlines like, “The best computer for running Windows 7 is a Mac”?

This thing from Mashable isn’t ping-worthy as it stands. Maybe after Alex posts some actual data on the same programs under both OSes, more than just graphics rendering rates, it’ll become worthy. But I’m not going to bother the Windows Ping List with some kid’s personal impressions, at least not yet.
