    for most windows > Linux Converts I introduce them using Ubuntu.

    I find it makes the transition easier. Familiarity breeds comfort and confidence.

    I tried Unbuntu for a couple weeks... couldn't find any reason to keep it. The OS X interface just felt better to me.

    I've got the same opinion of Windows that the original poster does. Can't stand it! I gave some serious thought to going back to a Mac (went to a PC in the 1990s when I had ballistic software that I needed to run and it was not at all Mac friendly). My issue with a Mac is the company as a whole. It's my understanding that Al Gore is even on the board there. But then Bill Gates is a screeching lib as well.

    He is one of, if not the, worlds preeminent capitalist.

    Just because he's giving away his billions of dollars to improve the world of his own volition. He isn't stealing the money from everyone else at gun point.

    Aside from having run a company that strengthened and profited from it's monopoly, How are you going to bag on the guy?

    Get a Mac, Run windows as a program in paralells like windows was ment to be.
    Windows = good program
    windows = bad os
    I would also give a +1 to ubuntu.



    BTW Steve Jobs sits on the disney board, you hate mickey too?
