Hey, I liked that flashing C:\> prompt! I think, and I'm really just speculating here, that Windows or any other PC operating system is going to have a hard time when being compared to the Mac OS and OSX, simply because there is so much more PC hardware avaliable (different bios, sound cards, video cards, ide/sata/scsi adapters, etc...) that has to be supported by the OS, and that makes it pretty hard to make a solid system. With the Mac, I believe that most of the hardware is either Apple made or approved (right?), and there isn't nearly the mountains of hardware avaliable for a Mac as there is for the PC.
AMlmost anything you can do with a PC, can be done with a Mac... games not included. Mac is designed for intelligent work, not puerile pursuits!
