Actually, Solaris, I don't support Apple anymore. I Have a Mac and OS X, but it certainly isn't my #1 thing anymore.
I support Linux and Windows.
Linux because it's the next big thing. Windows because, for me anyway, it just works, the same way OS X does.
Now, first, let's point out the problems with your "debate style"... and I use that phrase loosely. This is how I present my argument.
"I find Linux and Windows XP to both be equal in quality. In stability, security, and software/hardware support."
Your rebuttal:
"YOU A LIE!! Windows cannote be goode becas it is Micrasoft! The bloat and bloat and virus and bloat and IE and bloate and bloat and security and bloat!"
My reponse to you:
"I said that I have found this to be true. Your mileage my vary. For me, there have been no problems."
Your tirade:
"BUT WINDOWSE CANT'E BE GOOD! MIRCOSOFT DOES EVERTHING WRONG FOR TEH MONEY!! THE PR MACIHNE!! THE BLOAT THE BLOAT THE BLOAT THE BLOAT! BILL GATES! BLOAT BLOAT BLOAT BLOAT!! DRIVERS AND BLOAT!! BLOATED DRIVERS!! SECURITY BLOAT!!"
What is your personal stake in this? How is your life affected by what OS somebody runs? Somebody you'll never meet. What did Microsoft Corp. ever do to you to make you so damn hostile?
Chill the fuck out and shut your mouth. We're tired of you hijacking and ruining threads with your PR MACHINE.
SP 2 was designed to address all the things you constantly bitch about.
1) Security. Service Pack 2 includes numerous security updates. These range from revamped versions of IE and OE, to the new comprehensinve firewall, to low-level architectural changes that protect system memory.
2) Compatibility. SP 2 does break some things, particularly older (pre-Win98) apps, but what's more important to you? Running that decade-old calendar app, or security? For newer apps, compatibility is better, as SP 2 benefits from two more years nearly of compatibility development over SP 1.
3) Networking and hardware. SP 2 has greatly enhanced support for network hardware, especially wireless. Configuring wireless networking is now as brain-dead simple as it is on OS X.
4) New Microsoft Shut The Hell Up XP. I hear they put that in just for you, Solaris.
Here's a screenshot using the "Star Trek" theme in the app.

I noticed this with Rise of Nations, jDOOM, and Crimson Skies.
All of these improvements are because MS integrated stuff from Longhorn... could it be... Longhorn will be... dare I say... good?
If these few little trickles are any indication, perhaps so!

All I know is, they start talking about that Palladium bullshit again, count me out for good. I'm *NOT* having some dipshit pencil pusher reading MY private files. That's right, MINE. As in, NOT HIS TO READ (or hers as the case may warrant). I'm already using RH9, "deprecated" as some people seem to think it to be, to hedge my bets. I'm not taking any chance with my corporate information, thanks.
