So you don't use the video games, downloadable movies, streaming media from any DLNA compatible server, photo viewing, blu-ray player, dvd player, or the ability to install and run another OS?

Why did you buy a PS3?

@David - why don't you post some links to these well researched articles that show how bloated and poor performing Windows 7 is. Thanks!

And take your time getting off your knees and zipping up Steve's pants.

Password Tote is a great Windows-based alternative - controldev.com for a trial.

@LondonConsultant - skipping an OS release you don't find any worth or benefit from is always a bright idea. On the other hand, I'm sure those who have been using, enjoying, and finding productivity benefits from Vista are glad they took the plunge instead of waiting.

@Dani - Your comment is laughable at best. Posting anecdotal evidence and regurgitated fanboy crap just makes you sound ignorant.

BSOD's haven't been a problem since Windows XP and Vista, unless there is a hardware or device driver problem.

OS X has *plenty* of its own issues. To think otherwise is just ignorance of the platform. How about the fact that if OS X is unable to mount a share in the login items for a user, it's impossible to shut down the OS without using a hard shut down?

"When SP1 was released, it broke a number of people's computers. Less stable." Are you new around here? Have you no idea the problems Leopard caused when it was released? How about people's files being lost when moved over a network...

OS X was written from scratch??? Wow...you really have NO idea about the OS. Maybe you should start here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS_X

The command shell in Vista is inferior to DOS? .... wow.

What "compatibility mode" in Vista are you comparing to Rosetta? If you are referring to being able to alter a shortcut to have the application run as though it were under a previous version of Windows, well, you are definitely comparing apples and oranges.

All in all, I'd suggest you just completely stop posting comments, at least on technical sites, until you bolster your technical knowledge. And yes, I run both OS X and Vista and develop actively and professionally for both.

@Andrew - Have you ever used OS X? It most certainly prompts you to reboot for updates just as much as Windows does.
