#1 I've been using Vista for about a month and I love it. It's more stable than XP and seems smoother. I'll never go back to XP now!

#4 I have been using OS X as my main OS for 3 years ow and it is, by far, so superior to XP that I chuckle when I must use my old PC.

#5 I'm going to change only when I have to change and then to Mac. The Mini-Mac will do exactly what I need in a machine. So why put up being a beta tester for those many darker, less visited corners werent visited by the Microsoft Makeover fairy at all. The entry ports for hackers. No thanks.

#7 Today I had lunch with consultant and I told him about how a guy (who has ledft MS for Gogle) had to work for whole year on the power off menu of Vista. Doéens of meetings were the only thig who was decided was meet the next wek, red tape. And I told him how different in Bill Gates times: Joel Spolsji in Joel on software tells how hen he was junior designer the number 2 or 3 of the company tried to step on his work and he was overuled by Gates: when you were in charge you were in charge no matter how junior and nobody was allowzeed to micromanage you.

That is where my (French) consultant told: "That is very American" and I replied "Today, MS is no longer American, it is a Soviet companty."
