That's right, your a Windoz user, so please don't act like your not. I'll
bet your even Microsoft certified!!! Aren't you? Or should I say brain
washed! You may network Macs, but that doesn't mean you use them or really
know shit about them. You make your statements based on what you read, try
using a Mac with OSX, and only OSX for a year then get back to all the Mac
guys here. Then you can tell us how shitty Apple is as a company, and how
inefficient and unusable Mac OSX is. As others have said, it's Mac bashing
and it's getting old. I post some thing about what is going on,FYI for the
Mac guys, and you go on the attack. It is obvious you hate Apple Computer,
so don't try to come off as an equal opportunity hater, it's insulting our
intellect.

Apple as a computer company has been probably the biggest innovator in the
personal computer industry. It's too bad some people refuse to give them
credit for all their innovation and vision, not to mention some great decisions.
Through their history they have made some bad decisions, however the good
decisions have out weighed the bad ones. That is why they are successful.
The iPod is a great product, but it is a fact, there is a lot more people
using Apple computers, than there are using Apple iPods. That would make
Apple, a computer company.

Apple has sold more UNIX based operating sys
