As a user and supporter of both operating systems, I can assure you
that your suspicions are correct only if you similarly equate the
driving and purchasing experience of a Yugo with a Mini Cooper.
automobile similes never quite work right for computers, but that
doesn't keep us from trying ;?>
i do think you put too big a split between those models; maybe VW Golf
and Mini Cooper? (not that i want to be dragged into car aficionado
minutia either)
I'm not an aficionado, I'm a programmer. When the Mac was introduced I
was really looking forward to learning to program for it. Then I found
out all of the hurdles Apple put in the independents way. So I
specialized in PCs.
