Now, I don't want to badmouth them too badly, they do have very nice hardware, and great customer support.

And while I don't think they necessarily "innovate" they certainly know how to bring it together in a nice package.

Unfortunately, nothing is compatible, everything is proprietary, and Windows continues to be Industry standard for... everything.

So I dual boot my laptop with Windows 7 and Linux. Because I like that actually have programs, and I like things I can play with. Neither of which iOS Desktop Edition can give me.

But hey, more power to ya man, I know people who use macs and love it. I also know people who make fun of them.

Windows is all about the maintenance, if you keep your computer clean, keep that registry under control and such, no worries.

And hell, don't give me that about no viruses on macs, we all know that's not true. Even if it WERE true, the more people use it, the more viruses will be released.
and microsoft listens to their customers, unlike how apple just says "go uses something else if you dont like it". look at WP8 on engadget that was posted today, everything that people hated about WP7 is pretty much in WP8.

i agree though, back when Windows 7 was released i wanted to use mac osx so bad
