Exactly. Windows trolls who keep banging on OS X hoping to find something wrong with it are too full of themselves to know any better. Anyone that still uses windows for any serious work is just ignorant (office environments will be forgiven for now).

Well... Windoze users/trolls would be the most experienced ones with problems and fairly qualified in my book to know one when they see it. I mean after all they deal with them day in and day out...

Actually I think a *lot* if the windows vulnerabilities are due directly to the language the OS was written in: C/C++.
For example: Virtually *ALL* of the ‘buffer overflow’ errors are due to C’s [in]ability to verify an array index.

[cough] AHEM.

I use Windows for serious work (in addition to OS-X, Linux, NetBSD, and others). Both in my office environment, and at home for pleasure.

Are you talking about me?

I switched to Apple for a day and found it too look fugly like a free Linux GUI. Only you have to pay for it. Windows 7 looks very nice. XP looked so ugly I always ran it in a mode that maked it look like Windows 98...... back then you could have claimed the Apple OS looked better than Windows
