[QUOTE="azhrei_fje, post: 4588355, member: 12966"] "I'm happy with what I use and I don't know anything else, so how could I ever be happier?" I just love it... :) I'm not a huge fan of Apple or Macs, but I am a huge detractor for Windows. Just about [u]anything else[/u] is a step up, IMO. Or two steps, in some cases. My preferred OS is some version of a POSIX-compatible system; one that let's me run all the freeware that's available. Linux has the greatest support right now, but I've used FreeBSD in the past. I even had a box back in the 80's that run Unix System III. Windows has gotten much better since XP came out, but there are still TOO MANY known bugs that MS refuses to fix. :( How could I ever support a company that won't fix known security issues? How could I ever base a company around products from such a vendor? (This is one of the reasons why I'm not too hip on Apple either. They do similar things with the Mac OS, although not quite to the same extent.) Sorry, I'm rambling... [/QUOTE]
