Caring about the OS is so 1990's.

That seems to be the prevailing attitude among Windows users, since that OS is still stuck in the 90s.

The world does its business on-line now...in browsers. It's the browser that matters, not the OS.

The quality of browser is dependent on the quality of the OS.

That was funny Hal. It wasn't correct, but it was a good comeback.

O/S is definitely not 90's. Obviously even the hosting systems have to have O/S's.

It's too bad Apple won't release a shrinkwrap or downloadable version of OSX (even for XBOX or PS2, I wish they would) but that doesn't mean they should have to accept Russian hackers cracking their encryption, and potentially costing them billions in sales of either hardware or software. We all know it can be done, with enough effort, so it's going to have to be against the law. Hopefully Russia still has some in effect, but I'm starting to wonder.

"The quality of browser is dependent on the quality of the OS."

It would surprise me if there was any meaningful difference in any browser based upon the "quality of the OS."

Can you itemize any such differences, or do they not exist?
