I repsect microsoft and bill gates for thinking they are doing good for the computing world, They think they are providing a good operating system and a good amount of services for their users. Sure some of the people working for Microsoft can be a little out of controll some times like stated in other threads on these forums. But microsoft can be a good company if they actually just start over with windows and not try to make the current operating system better. They need to start over from scratch with a *nix based operating system. Its the future and Mac has happened to find that out early.

no wonder they were ranting on a 10 year old OS.

If you don't like it use something else. There are plenty of options. I think Windows XP is a good operating system, all things considered.

I tend to think people will use what works best for them. I try not to get caught in the trap of trashing PCs just because I don't like them as much as my Mac.

nothing wrong with Pc's and windows IMO is just when you connect to the net that problems happen.
