Just because it has error messages that better explain why the computer won’t do what you want it to do doesn’t mean it’s a better operating system. Go Mac. It just works.

I switched from Windows to Mac about 4 years ago. Since then Macs have been close to flawless, and yes Windows had some hiccups, but I still want to keep up with it. All Macs now can run windows, as I’d like to, but the pricing/copy protection system is out of whack. Microsoft is so paranoid about piracy that it’s hugely difficult to install Windows without a new valid copy. I know that might sound like I’m just advocating piracy, but if anyone at Microsoft is listening, hear me out: Folks won’t be calling into MS and costing you money with tech support without a valid license, some just want to throw a copy on a separate partition of their Mac hard drive for occasional use. This is beneficial for Microsoft in many ways, i.e. it bumps up Windows market-share, it would probably engender more sympathy that MS is a ‘play nice’ company and not just a behemoth that needs strict regulation, if it’s priced fair it would throw a few more dollars in the MS coffer, and it would help with general PR (which MS is having a really hard time with). Either it should be more affordable for the occasional user, or made easier for folks to install while forgoing any tech support.
In the Mac world when you buy a new OS, you can install it on any Mac that can handle it (hardware-wise). It’s so easy and seamless. I understand it’s a different financial situation for MS, but they’re not helping anything with their overly strict pricing system.
I hope this review can be read without jumping into the all-too-common ‘Mac vs. PC’ fight. I’d like to imagine a world where they both learn from each other and thrive.

its death by a thousand cuts again. I just tried to copy a thumb drive ono my PC, and was told I need Administrator privilege. M’soft has got a huge problem that is not solvable by new releases: they need to run on many hardware platforms and legacy file formats. They are the victim of “combinatorial explosion” beyond their control. That, plus the virus-spyware problem, initiated my labor-saving action:
I just bought a Mac.

I was kind of shocked by how completely unimpressive this is. Not to mention buggy and bad.
I could make clever lists to note point by point how terrible it is, but only if I had hours to waste, which I don’t.
This is what finally through me over the edge.
I didn’t actually throw my computer out the window of my 8th floor apartment but only because I didn’t want someone to get hurt. I have been hearing bad things about microsoft for as long as I have been experiencing them. But I am shocked I spent this money. I feel like such a heel.
So I bought a mac. I couldn’t be happier. I know macs don’t work for everyone for everything, but I would rather live without a computer than have to go back to the slagpile of microsoft.

We should all boycott Microsoft products because Microsoft lays off American engineers and replace them with foreign H1Bs who are cheaper and willingly enslave themselves to the corporation in order to stay in the U.S. That makes the working conditions more difficult for American as well. The H1B program has also discouraged a new generation of American students from studying science and technology because they don’t want to graduate with a large educational debt and no job prospect.
