Mac vs. PC(pic)

ChadTower:


...you may change your opinion slightly when you move to Vista.  I'm a PC guy and Vista made me consider moving to Macs.

(+_+):
In all fareness, when you rush something out the door with the scope that Vista, .Net and the flood of cool technologies Microsoft has been releasing over the past few years, it is no wonder it is a little buggy. Mac software are toys when you compare it to the business side that microsoft has to produce for and the huge demands and expectations to live up to all while under the incessant and constant scrutiny of the entire world. I'd say it's almost a miracle that they keep up. Just pull any one larger technology that they have produced such as MS SQL Server 2008 and the complexity of the overall package is apt to make you run home screaming to you mother. And then it has to play well with Vista along with every other app or game that has every been released since the dawn of the PC age and run without a hitch on the PC platform. Come on, give them a break already.  ::)

ChadTower:

Did he really just say "in all fairness, when you rush development and fail at QA, the product should suck, so they deserve a break"?

shardian:
Everyone I know that has Vista has every single program running in XP mode. WTF is the point of Vista then?

(+_+):
In all fairness to the products themselves, I believe the developpers/testers have done a fantastic job. But lets not forget the pressure and timelines they have to deal with to meet customer and executive expectations while still releasing such amazing stuff quite regulary. Vista still isn't perfect but it'll only get better and better just as XP did all the while offering more that MAC will ever dream of with it's expensive and pretty little hollow package.
