There's no but. It just sucks, that's it. You might want to have a look at the EULA if you're still unsure.

If you want to stick to the PC and want to use an OS that works for you (not against you, like Vista), try some BSD or Linux flavor. Otherwise, a Mac is also a good choice. I agree with ikir, Vista is just a bad, broken copy of OS-X.

I agree w/ SuperTurbo.  Regrettably, Windoze is the better of several really bad choices of so-called "modern" operating systems -- namely the bewildering array of Unix wannabes, MacOS among them.  I believe unix was developed in the early 1960s, wasn't it?

That was Multics, an early predecessor. Unix was actually born in 1970.

So why now, almost half a century later, is this antiquity hailed as the crowning achievement of high tech, especially by self-congratulatory companies like Apple.

For the same reason people still use their antique Amiga. It simply works - in a unique and very efficient way.

We could solve the global energy crisis if someone could figure out how to convert all the OS-X hype into methane gas!  At least Winidoze and AmigaOS were created when most of us were alive (Mac68K, too), but not OS X, which is a cheesy cover of a golden oldie -- an absurdly bloated one at that.

Hmm... reading that, I doubt you have really ever used OS-X. Besides, it's not half as bloated as Vista.

Just because the RAM exists to load everything including the kitchen sink doesn't mean we should necessarily do it.

:lol: Vista seems to load it, and even more (link inside). Ah... whatever... imho it's a waste of time even to think about it.
