OS X's BSOD is quite nasty too. It's also annoying when it says a program has froze, click here to close it. When you go to click it, the system fucking locks up.

The OS is slow as shit too. It feels like I'm using an OS entirely made out of Java with the nasty UI. Expose is a nifty feature, but has no real purpose for me because it's quicker and more efficient to use keys or the dock to switch between applications.

I would, honestly, rather use Gentoo or Windows as an environment to get my computer work done.




So you have been using OS X for several years??

REALLY THATS VERY STRANGE AS OS X HAS ONLY BEEN AROUND 3 YEARS!!

Your statement is absolute BOLLOCKS!

You obviously mean OS 9 or 8.

For your information I am a designer with over 14 years experience and Mac OS X wipes winblows ass.

I also run my own media company and we wont touch windows pcs with a bargepole! Recently we upgraded to G5s and had a bulk delivery of 50 macs and are now totally running OS X 10.3.3 Panther.

The next step is to get rid of that shit piece of crap betaware called microsoft office.

It NEVER crashes - is fast - intuitive and is the most secure and stable operating system in existance.

How many days will it be when longhorn is released that we hear about the next longhorn virus - I reckon a longhorn virus will hit pc windblows after about 5 days after it's released.

Maybe you just *thought* it was crashing from switching between 50 computers all day.

What I find suspicious is your calling OSX's "BSOD" nasty. First off, it's not a BSOD. There's nothing blue on it. I think what you are referring to is the "[Application] has unexpectedly quit" message. That message is usually the result of the app, not the system, and the entire point of it is informing you something crashed, but whatever it was the SYSTEM wasn't it.

The closest thing Apple has to a BSOD is the kernel panic display. In earlier versions of OSX the kernel panic was a string of DOS-like text scrolling down your screen. In 10.3, the kernel panic is a gray box that says in several languages "You need to restart your computer." Not that "nasty", seeing as it is just a gray box. The nasty part of it is when it occurs to you the reason they have all languages displayed is because the system is so far gone that it can't even access your language preference.  :D

Mac OS X crashes so rarely that it's parallel to the viruses it gets: It almost never happens, but when it does, it's big.
Windows: 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor written by a 2 bit company that can't stand 1 bit of competition.

I'd say some of the Apple fans here are taking things just a little too seriosuly ;)

Kasracer: You, sir, are an idiot. I've not had a Mac for long, but it's never crashed (running Panther). It's very quick as well, very responsive and snappy. It runs no slower than my Pentium 4 running a 2K/Linux combo.
