“I can tell you that – with my limited exposure to the latest Leopard beta – OS X 10.5 is a far more user friendly, home network happy, 64-bit operating system for consumers than Windows Vista (even with SP1) could ever hope to be. This isn’t a classic ‘Apple vs Microsoft’ argument so much as it’s a ‘Windows vs Users’ one,” Chris Pirillo writes.
“To switch or not to switch… is becoming less of a question. Yesterday’s arguments simply DO NOT APPLY,” Pirillo writes.

More and more light is shining on the world day by day…
One large difference between Apple and Microsoft is that if Apple delayed Leopard now, people wouldn’t doubt that it was so they could make it even better, with Microsoft their delays are because they struggle to just get any old thing out the door.
Duh!

I’ve been using PCs and Windows for over 15 years, and I switched to OS X this summer. I’ve come to the same point you mentionned: I want a computer that works and don’t want to bother anymore with the technical stuff.
Obviously, it depends on your needs, but I think that unless you play games, you can do anything on OS X you could do on Windows, in an easier way.
My PC is now an expensive video game platform, and I basically don’t use it anymore.
On the other hand, I work full-time on my mac and I’m a lot more productive.

The Lucy shames Vista!
System 6 shamed Vista!
mac os 6.5 was cool to,
I used vista for 5 minutes, wow, They want it to be crap.
Vista has nothing to be ashamed of. Microsoft poured 5 years of blood, sweat and tears into their shining release and critics and users are rightfully ecstatic. I’m rockin’ Vista on my Dell right now.
It is Apple who should be ashamed of their blatant copy of Microsoft’s marvelous innovations. Apple, you make yourself look bad, and the world is beginning to notice. Buh-bye, Apple.
Your potential. Our passion.™
Norton Commander on DOS was… never mind.

With the total debacle of iMovie 08, I resorted to looking into MSoft and Vista so I could run Adobe Premier Elements.
Still haven’t given up, but the Vista world has me close to giving up – what a mess!
I guess Steve knew this and that’s why he’s not worried about running off the long-time iMovie faithful.
It’s still knife to the heart and I’ll never see Steven Paul Jobs with the same admiration and resect I once had for him.
