    Ok I'll go with that. I tend to use things until they don't work anymore and then I use something else. (typically cars) So, you could apply that to an OS. If it works ,use it. I happened to get Vista on sale and I loaded and configured it with the custom install option and it works very well for me. :)

      Nothing like an unbiased opinion. "Green indicates a category with more and/or better features, and generally a better user experience. Red indicates that a category not quite up to snuff" So why isn't Safari red? And QuickTime - not a deep, bloody shade of crimson? Pah. I'd also like to see a line item: "Must eject external storage devices before unplugging otherwise the OS has a hissy fit".

      cheers, Chris Maunder

      The only problem I've ever had with Safari is that when I log on to remote journal access it whines and complains about "too many redirects", so I have to use Firefox. Aside from that, CP renders just fine with it and it's quite fast compared to IE. As for the external storage devices, that's just crying wolf. I hook up my digital camera and it (the OS) complains constantly, but I've never lost data. I think it's just part of the UI... BTW: are you still in "The big smoke"?


      "Surely you know what a blue-plate is, man? They shove the whole meal at you under your nose, already dished up on your plate -roast turkey, cranberry sauce, sausages and carrots and French Fried. I can't bear French fried but there's no pick and choose with a blue-plate." "No pick and choose?" "You eat what you're given. That's democracy, man."
