I'm not asking you to care. Windoze still sucks, no matter how many
idiots use it. The virus protection racket alone is enough to
make me
throw up.
Viruses? God, that old bullshit ladened chestnut*. At least come up
with some kind of valid OS argument, please. If you'd gone for
'competent use of the CPU', or 'effective memory management', you'd be
worth taking seriously.
Not to start a holy war... But I've never had a virus infect a
Macintosh... And I've been using Mac's since the mid 80's... And
Apple before that :)
Now... To add something useful to this discussions, I whole heartily
believe unless you are the only one that is EVER going to use your
killer application... It should work and look good on any piece of
crap(read: ALL OF THEM) operating system... Because if we get down to
it... Every single person on this list could think of 50 things they
want to change on their current operating system. If you couldn't,
How can you be considered a developer? ; )
