[markjs]

It's a screenshot of my desktop in Vista, can I somehow make it clearer?

 

[paul_valaru]

There is nothing there!

Is this you saying that you oppose microsoft, and would never buy one of there sub-standard over-priced products?

in which case I salute you.

Or did they link not work?

In which case why the hell did you get that piece of crap vista?

I wonder why it would be him... he co-founded Microsoft.

Really?

I'm off to look for some pics of Shrillary without the benefit of sight-protecting layers...

I think that, as much as anything, is why so many PC people hate macs and have disdain for mac people. It's that "Zen, we are one with humanity because we use a mac and are "green" and Utopian and therefore better than you" kind of thing that is common with so many mac peeps. I work on all three common home platforms and they all have their high points and low points. We all know what they are with Vista. But the fact is I'd have to say Vista is a "better' OS, just in that it is made for THOUSANDS of clone hardware and software and works well with so many, where mac is aiming at being proprietary and making you pay premium prices for a small set of hardware or software. I don't hate mac or mac people, until they get all Utopian about it. Nothing personal ash, I am sure you didn't mean to come off that way but many mac people do come off that way whether they mean to or not.
