Vista is superior to OS X. It's faster, more compatible, easier, and has virtually every feature that OS X does. Flip 3D must be making the expose developers take a dump in their pants because it is such a brilliant feature that is better implemented than expose.

Sure... Ehmm... Maybe you should stay off that crack Mr. Troll...

You got to do better than that if you want to start a flamewar. A little more subtle the next time and you might just make it.

It's your right to say this. I haven't tried Vista in dual boot on this iMac yet but I do have it running in Parallels. And I must say that i'm not that impressed. Okay, the speed is not up to par because of Parallels but I don't think it's superior to OS X. I for one looked forward to coming back into OS X after having tried Vista Ultimate.

Maybe a dual boot - with proper speed- will change my mind. But I doubt it. My Windows XP experience lasted approx. 3 days.

ciao.

I always swore that Win2000 would be my last version of Windows, but after awhile I did go WinXP <sp2. WinSP2 was horribly slow for me and WinVista needs more ram = slower. I was not impressed with WinVista RC1.

I believe WinBorg is the better alternative here.

OSX is much quicker than any WIndows of the last 8 years. With dual/quad core the difference is even more measurable. Microsoft better get its' act together quickly.

Vista may be necessary for the new MS Office stuff. --> Good reason to go Win Vista.

More compatible? Have you read the reports about Adobe/Symantec software not working?
