I really want a stable and secure escape from XP…..

I had some exposure to macs back then but they were expensive and limited in screen size - anyone remenber the Mac SE? Ok, so I am showing my age. Sure, windows has had its dud versions but XP was solid and W7 looks to be a winner. I too don't like open source but that is because I don't like uncontrolled releases and tweaks. As an environment to support in the corporate arena, it would be a nightmare. Imagin supporting 2000+ laptops which could all be potentially different in their setup and level of update. Corporate SOE with auto updates blocked has distinct support advantages as you have only 1 version of the truth to deal with. I am pc, have been since my uni days waaaaay to many moons ago.

May I ask why? You aren't required to modify anything. It's possible for someone to make an improvement, and then pass it on to you. I use Windows, so I'm not a Linux fanboy but that is a stupid thing to say. You seem to be a Microsoft fanboy and that is just as annoying as Apple fanboys. You hate open source? May I ask why?

Now, it's not because Apple sucks, or Mac sucks, in fact I like the way the Mac works. But then I realize, Macs don't run on all of my games, which some don't have a Mac version, and all the Mac really is is just a basic operating system with tons of candy graphics. I mean, you cannot change the window color, or do much customization with the dock (as in different styles, animations, etc).* Then in the PC, they have a lot of candy graphics too, but they actually allow you to customize it all! Plus their market share is very great. But the main reason why I like Windows, especially XP, Vista and 7, because I like how, despite the torture, harassment, etc that Microsoft gets from fan boys and Apple, they still keep going, doing their best. With Windows 7 the argument is 'it's just another Vista', but they say it as if there hasn't been any improvements. But Windows7, as we all know, <strong>is</strong> just Vista, with <strong>more</strong> features and a slightly changed interface! We could look at Snow Leopard and say the same thing, 'it's just Leopard under the hood, there's nothing new', and they would argue that it's really faster, more safer, etc. I find it sad how people not only believe but defend their choices via what Apple and fan boys say.   <em>*The default OS, without any modifications, such as downloads, mods, etc. Straight from the box.</em> I honestly think that PCs are better.

Just because the computer isn't called a PC by it's developers, doesn't change the fact that it's using an intel x86/64 processor in intel motherboards using off-the-shelf computer memory, hard didks, and graphics cards. The difference is the TPM chip installed on the motherboard which gives Mac OS the go ahead to install. A physically identical computer system, with a monitor (although admittedly a less attractive one), keyboard, mouse, etc, will come in at least 35% cheaper than a mac based on the EXACT same hardware. Assuming the monitor is the expensive part would be too easy, the monitors are good but not THAT good. And a monitor isn't even a core component of a computer, so I'm slightly getting off the point here. A mac IS a generic computer in a shiny case, with a higher price tag. @the MP
