# pfffttttttttt
you homos.

be a bit more adventurous and be electronically bisexual.

macs are nice but you could get a equally more powerful machine in a PC.

# Vista is holding all back apparently
I'm no expert, but am simply fed up with the risk running a windows based platform; despite two firewalls and a router on the PC

I set myself a budget of £2000 for a new PC but what i'm now on is faster, at £2500, and less prone to unwanted nasty things in the long run, plus has a virtual environment I can run Windows XP and all my games

And came with CS3 Suite :)

# Vista is quite nice, actually.
It just gets trolled to fuck. Like macs.
I can't confirm if it's any good for gaming, but for what I use my laptop for it's much nicer than XP.

# Vista is just like windows ME
A stopgap OS to keep Microshaft quids in. It's a huge public beta test.

# No, ME was an abomination that didn't work.
Vista's not even in the same league.
Usability-wise it's much nicer than xp, and just as stable. This is personal experience, of course, and your mileage may vary. I wouldn't recommend it for businesses.

# Got warned away from it from my IT guy
on account of speed and other issues; I suspect someone will now discredit this; though I will hold his advice

The speed i'm experiencing is simply incredibable

# Nope he's right
Vista is a resource hog. We're sticking with XP til Vienna is released.

# And it's sexy as fuck and works properly.
I'm not saying Macs never crash (although none of mine have crashed in the last .... 5 years, probably) - they do have problems, things need resetting and applications need force quitting occasionally. However, I bought a MBP in February and I've only had to switch it off to install updates.

# i really hate macs.
not coz they're crap or anything.

Just try managing them in a large windows corporate network - bloody nightmare.

And Office Mac users are the worst ponciest bastards.........

There's no challenge in a computer that works properly...

# or:
Use bootcamp on said Mac and be truly electronically bisexual. Thus totally smashing the 'equally more powerful' PCs XP or Vista boot time to smithereens.

Its the dogs danglies.
