A vista/XP computer will make you life easier as regards getting s/w and assistance, probably cheaper bang per bucks. However Macs will make you seem V trendy and many people love them.
In my line of business no question windows PC is king, but cos it is ubiquitous rather than best (like VHS/Betamax). I am not sure this is true. However Trojans and Viruses are written by lowlifes who want to cause as much misery and unhappiness as poss, so they tend to aim for the areas with the largest installed user base. S'true there are thousands of weaknesses with Windows (jury still out on Vista, prob will be until SP1) but much of that is because it tries to do more and MS made a decision to leave most things open in their OS, for ease of integration. Computers are inherently bug ridden because programmers are such a bunch of sandal wearing, Halo playing numbnuts ;-) Also Apple is proprietary, they, afaik, let no one else make MACs. PCs are totally open so you have a greater choice and more price competitiveness and pretty much everything is written with PC in mind, MAC OS and LINUX often come second with all the attendant issues. ttfn Richard > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dr > Michael Benjamin > Sent: 28 September 2007 11:49 > To: Errand Fivefold > Cc: LUList; John Boocock > Subject: Re: [LU] Absolutely Non LU > > What do you do with the other two? > > On 28/09/2007, Errand Fivefold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > What, for "three fingered" sausage jockeys? > > > > > > ;-) > > > > Verner > > > > > > *John Boocock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>* wrote: > > > > > > > > Errand Fivefold wrote: > > ================= > > > the lack of a right mouse button does my head in. > > > > Not no more Macs now have 3 button mice > > > > Betty > > > > > > > > > > Verner > > > > tHe LiTtLe YeLlOw DaFfOdIl @}-,-'-- > > > > > -- > Dr Michael Benjamin, > Psychiatrist > myRay: For peace of mind, > > Free Online Self-Help CBT: http://www.myray.com Fact Sheet: > Emotional Stress: http://www.MyDoctorExplains.com A > Psychiatrist's Blog: http://www.DrMichaelBenjamin.com > _______________________________________________ > the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list > administrators accept no liability for the personal views and > opinions of contributors. > Leedslist mailing list > [email protected] > http://list.zetnet.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist > 6 in a bloody row! _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
