When I need windows, its either 98se, 2k or XP. OS X- very good, I like the UNIX roots of it, the clean design, hate the intel part of it. I trust OS X more than Windoze. I hate that all of my networked windows boxes pick up all the bloatware $hit. I hate Micro$h

@KThunder

If windows and Intel weren't around like they are today, people would be more proficient in computers, hell ten years ago the users of computers knew more about the system they used than the users today.

@Tone007
These are some fool propaganda things you're saying. Bill Gates may be a nice guy, but Steve Jobs is NOT a tool, he is the master of the Mac Classic B&W. Okay he also pushed the Lisa, but he didn't make MS BOB nor did he screw OS/2 up. You may be a 'doze fanboy, but please state why in an intelligent, non-rantish manner.

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

In response to the shut down/hibernate thing, my PB G4 I keep on when I'm gonna be on it a lot. My former desktop, I shut down too. Here's why:

Sleep/hibernate on my desktop caused it to overheat (it used a power hungry P4 HT)

I don't care about fast booting, it means nothing to me. I like the fact that with apple, you can remove safari altogether. In windows 2k and up, you may be able to do it, but everytime i've tried it breaks other features.

And as for my preference of OS X over BSD/Linux, I like the availability of usable applications on a mac plus the fact you never need to run a command line.

Oh ou misunderstand, I really like the terminal (under utilities) I just like the GUI option, just like in WB I like the show all files option on WB instead of navigating in a shell.
