You are so wrong! The Mac has a very lively and helpful community around it, even though its closed and paid. Saying Macs don't have decent third-party apps is the same as people crying Linux not having enough apps. Its baseless, because I have always found Linux apps to be much better than their Windows counterparts, and there is no such app I have not found (for anything) > Its unsecure to the core and more importantly apple doesn't care about > security issues (google carpet bombing), the only reason why their loopholes > don't come > to light is because there are rarely any people you'd find who really made > the mistake of buying a mac. I am sorry, but its really too noobish to say anything is more insecure than Windows. UNIX and its derivatives have always been built with security in mind. Never wondered why the core-servers and massive supercomputers run Linux or UNIX? The Google carpet-bombing issue was heavily debated, and I refrain to comment on that. Apple has always listened to its users (read this thread from the start) and it shows why they have a niche market. If Apple didn't care about security, I am sure no hacker would use a Mac, and we know the blessed ones do exactly the opposite ;-) > if given a choice out of the 2 devils (mac and windows) i'll go with the > lesser devil Windows. My dual boot Ubuntu and Vista PC rocks. Vista totally disappoints. Its a waste of money, hardware, effort. The best option for me is to have the sleekest OS on a machine without paying a penny (Linux), or the sleekest OS and a sleeker machine by paying money (Apple), but definitely not a crappy OS on a humongous machine by paying even more. Apart from that, I may also refer you to badvista.fsf.org Cheers!
