Can't recall a Windows OS ever having this problem. Doesn't Apple test their products? I have only heard positives from end users of OSX. Except for this minor glitch.

LOL! How are you supposed to download the fixed version if you can't make a network connection?

I'd buy a Mac, but I'm not gay.

If I had the geeky knowledge I think I would come up with a Mac virus just to end the "My dog's better than your dog" wars here.

Then I would have to infect that dang penguin.

Actually Microsoft did release a security update a couple of months ago that pitched several hundred thousand users off the internet. That makes it difficult to get the fix.

Fortunately the updates can be uninstalled without access to the net.

Lots of big corporations hold off installing the updates for fear of bugs. That's why their pants are down when the exploit worms arrive. Better to live with bugs than worms in my opinion.

:-) You forgot the /sarcasm tag.

I've been running 10.2.8 since the "first version." No problems here. Apparently 2 models had problems with it (450MHz and 500MHz desktop models, I believe).

You Windows users just keep using what you've got. I'll keep using what I've got, and will profit financially from my increased productivity, and profit emotionally from the pleasant UI.
