Win2k Install vs. OS X PB Install
Just a little bit of a rant here: I’ve installed OSX Public Beta on a couple of machines. The longest it’s ever taken? About 12 minutes (on a PowerBook G3 400). The shortest it’s ever taken? About 8 minutes (on a G4 450). I’m installing Windows 2000 Professional Edition (like there’s any other…) on VirtualPC on that same Powerbook, and it’s taken over an hour and a half. I understand that VPC is to blame for SOME of this, but jesus. Even Setup says that it will take between 45 minutes to an hour. Fuck that shit. Damn. I don’t care if OSX does flop. I’m never switching to Windows. I’ll use my G4 and OS9 forever if I have to.
