    Of course, if Mac ever breaks into that kind of volume usage, virus writers will go after it, too.

    right now Mac doesn't have viruses not because not too many Mac users around the world, but the OS itself, basiclly a BSD, Unix OS, that has a unique different kind of security that makes impossible to make a virus there

    Definitely agree. Vista still hasn't picked up from it's support for device drivers slump. Don't own a mac (Love tiger though) and am fine with my Windows XP SP2 (Which has all the support in the world, well?..almost) I hope Microsoft decides to support XP fully gain though. (Can't wait for SP3 final version)

    Excuse Me?

    I read about Vista, actually I noticed the improvement there, but seems like just another skin for Windows while it lacks support for numbers of drivers, and one thing that makes feel sorry about Vista is they didn't write the codes from the scratch, Microsoft just continued the old Windows 3.1 codes. If they were started to write from the scratch, like Apple did when they jump to Tiger from Panther, it maybe a different story now about Vista

    Don't get me wrong Vista is a Beauty. It's just that it's driver support is next to none. I heard it's been slowly getting better. Too bad cause directx 10 could be gotten in Vista.

    I like both vista and leopard but they both break a few on my third party applications so I had to downgrade and upgrade later.

    it's a common problem on all new operating system but I think the drivers problem shouldn't be a very big issue, I know that some of 3rd party peripherals also don't work at Leopard at the moment, but it's only a few numbers, while almost all works flawlessly
