No matter what you say about bill and the microsoft pack... they dont give a service pack a cute animal name and sell it to you! what is leopard if not a service pack to fix issues with the previous os?

There is a reason why the whole bootcamp thing was created unless you are an artist or musician or a movie director/videoographer the software options are kinda' thin and expensive.

and why be tied down to not having choices? there is software created for those that maybe are just beginnig to intermediate to expert I doubt publishing houses use I photo to edit photographs for magazine and book covers.]]>Aug 23rd 2008 10:41PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/08/06/mac-vs-pc-8/http://www.switched.com/2008/08/06/mac-vs-pc-8/

You took a whole paragraph to say:
Windows gets viruses and malware and spyware
Macs don't.

What you did say was the same nonsense that everyone always says. If you say it enough it must be true.

"Macs don't get viruses because of low market share, so hackers ignore Mac. But that will all be changing soon. Apple is a victim of its own popularity"

This is just a sour grapes theory that has no point of repeating and repeating and repeating. Just stick to the facts sir.]]>Oct 10th 2008 10:00PM
