Are you sure a true Mac user? Been running the new OS since release date and haven't had a problem yet. Also, if all the problems are true, I think Apple does a hell of a better job developing software than MS ever will, since this is their first minor hiccup in an OS and I don't consider it a hiccup since I haven't had any problems yet.
Same goes for Vista. I haven't have problems with it, and from posts from another article in Giz, a lot of people also have had no problems with Vista. But there are also people having terrible problems with Vista and here you hear some people having bad time with Leopard. So how is Apple any better at developing software than Vista? Apple doesn't have to deal with millions of combinations in hardware like MS does and they are also less popular so they should have an easier time developing their OS. Now that they are gaining popularity a lot of the problems they have avoided are showing up. From what I can see, previous releases of OSX had "minor hiccups" but not to the extent on this release which is issuing "hefty fixes", so I wouldn't call these problems minor hiccups.
That's rather arrogant of you, what a surprise, to think just because you're not facing a problem with your product, other people aren't.
I too use Vista, and other than compatibility problems, Vista works awesome for me. The other things I run in compatibility mode. I use Media Center as my prime DVR and is the focal point of my entertainment center, I'm happy to use the best office suite in the world on my OS (Office 07'), and there's several other tidbits in Vista over Leopard.
You are joking right? "First minor hiccup?" You obviously haven't been running OS X since version 10.0! Talk about a train wreck. It took Apple several versions to iron out the kinks, and get the OS running decently.

I agree with Jake.

So thanks for trying.

"and there's several other tidbits in Vista over Leopard."
Engadget themselves did a check on Vista vs Leopard, as have PC World and many others. It's quite hard to find one where Leopard lost to Vista.
