Story: As the Mac turns 20, has the PC caught up?

Fewer applications make reliability: - Good, well written applications make reliability. Most PC stuff is dross - PC users to me that!

Fewer Macs to PC's: - Go the opposite way of the common man and you will succeed. The average man smokes, drinks, is overweight, has a poor self image, bad attitude and low self esteem. He does not exercise enough, if at all, has a bad diet and no goals set for life. IF he has a goal set it is where he is going for his holidays this year.

I do not smoke or drink. I am 12 stone on a 6' 1", muscular, broad shouldered frame. I have a good self image, good attitude and high self esteem which I maintain and improve with PMA book reading. I exercise as much as I can on my busy schedule, have a good diet and have MANY goals set, of varying time scales and levels.

If the average man is a sheep, then I am a Wolf. More so, an Eagle.

I type what I type because I am a man with facts - the best of all - experience. A man with a fact is never at the mercy of a man with a theory.

Most errors can be considered to be user produced. In my experience with Macs all but one have and even then I think that exception could have been.
You can do the same, CORRECT, thing on a PC many times over and it goes wrong each time in a different way. \:-)
Don't take just my word for it. Ask the MCSE who was standing next to me. We installed the software on several same specification machines, following the correct stated procedures each time, in the same order.

O.K. Macs can go wrong.

But PCs go absolutely ape.

This is not about superiority, it's about truth.

Macintosh OS X Panther; no viruses.

PCs; five figures. Some anti-virus companies reckon the number, when you consider variants can often be different despite the same initial nomenclature, may have passed the 100,000 mark...

Q.E.D.

You want loads of software?

You've got it!
