Mac vs Win Article
(I’m pretty excited. This is my first reference to IHT.)
This article might be worth your time, it might not be. It’s a fairly bland consumer-oriented response to the age-old ‘chicken or the egg’ that is the Mac vs Windows argument, and (let’s face it) we’ve all been a part of it, at one time or another. Although the writer does say something to the effect of both OSs crashing a lot, unless you can spend the time to tweak them into stability. This is misleading, I think. My parents’ iMac has never had any problems whatsoever, and their Apple menu is exactly how it was when the damn thing was shipped to CompUSA (not that the Apple menu is that important, it just tells you how very little they do in the ‘customization’ department). So yeah, Macs crash, but I think you need to do an awful lot more to them to get them there than you do with Windows. I had Windows 2000 lock up on the INSTALLATION. But that conversation is old and tired, isn’t it?
