SL is a brand new OS. If you pick it up expecting everything to work perfectly then there is no way you're going to have your expectations met. That's true for any company. The difference between Apple and Microsoft is that it takes Microsoft literally years to stabilize their new major OS versions (on the rare occasion they even have them) and Apple usually has a bulk of their issues nailed down within the month of release. Additionally, you can expect regular updates and bug fixes for the duration of the OS's life span.

As far as the iPhone support for exchange, I'm willing to admit the issues are lame (the encryption on the 3G S is so weak it may as well not be there), but it's not a damn blackberry. It's designed from the ground up as a personal device, not an enterprise one. Trying to complain about how poorly it works in the workplace is like complaining about how poorly your car operates in 10 feet of water. In either case, you're doing it wrong.

App£e and M$ : two ****sucking multi-billion dollar corporate scum.
Look at computer enthusiasts for answers by: Anonymous on 9/15/2009
The thing with apple vs. microsoft is that because more people use m$, more manufacturers make windows computers, which will obviously cause more problems than a company with very few 3rd parties i.e. apple. Also, the minute more people use apple's than PC's there will be a lot more hackers attacking them as well. It's like if a fox can eat grey and white rabbits. Today, there are tons of white rabbits, so the fox will attack them because they are everywhere. Tomorrow, there may be more grey ones.
Last point; people who build computers usually build PC's. There might be a reason for that.

The list is over 40 apps

I am willing to bet your HP Laptops also had nVidia MCPs in them...

Besides Vista would not be the reason your hardware died anyway. I am not sure what that has to do with anything.

If you want to get into that my first Power Book G4 (1.25GHz Aluminum) was returned 4 times before Apple finally gave me a brand new one. It took over 6 months to get resolved. The first time it was sent back they claimed they replaced the mainboard but as I had taken a picture of the board before I sent it back it was easy to see that was not the case (I still have all the correspondence from that nightmare).


The Malware protection in Snow Leopard only detects 2 viruses yet there are substantially more than that out there for OSX.

The only real thing Apple has a history of is misleading advertising.

Claiming that the Mac is immune to viruses and crashes is simply not true. Yet they calmly say it over and over again in their ads and PRs.
Not even Close to Vista by: Anonymous on 9/11/2009
Having lived through the Vista nightmare on a PC that was supposed to be "vista ready", the minor app issues with Snow Leopard are nothing. Vista didn't work well from top to bottom...hardware and software...even on machines "made" for it. I moved to a Mac 1 year ago after my second HP Vista laptop died (2 in 8 months!), and have never experienced such a trouble free computing experience. I upgraded 2 macs to snow leopard with no issues. If you really check your facts, you'd realize this is the reality in most cases. Those with most of the problems were the first day adopters with highly customized systems...if they had waited just one week, they likely would have had very few if any issues.

Apple continues to deliver a superior customer experience, and prides themselves on excellent customer service. This is why people will cut Apple slack, where Microsoft has a history of you get what you get software.

Sorry...there just is no comparison.

They have a legion of iMorons to cover and appologize for their evil monopolistic anti-consumer behavior.

People are stupid for thinking app£e is any less evil than ms.
