| That sounds right. Although so far I'm mostly happy with Apple products. Happier than with any Windows laptops. (But damn if I encounter a bug or an issue. Just reporting those have made hordes of Apple fans attack me, in response to a standard technical bug report.) |

Windows is also equally away from "3x Developers!" cry days. | | |

| Very true. People that manage to be nostalgic about system 8 or 9 mystify me. |
