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? ; ) -- Jason Pruim Raoset Inc.
