I have used Windows all my life, and as much as i have a distaste for Microsoft, and there shotty work in the past, they have done a good job with xp, compared to linux and every other OS. I believe XP has provided a good amount of credability. Although i am looking to learn linux and stick with it.

One thing, you mate are an idiot, 5 min to hack a PC, good luck with my setup. Nothings perfect but you think you can hack a PC protected by a third party firewall in 5 min goodluck, basically you don't know what firewall i use. It's even funnier because you are having ago at crazy unsubstantiated comments by taking a swipe at windows with the same type of comments. Good one.

Face it MAC finatics your OS is NOT propular enough to warrent the effort to write something for them, why would anyone bother, as much as this test was crap, the fact that there is not enough market share to warrent and decent attention.

In my opinion MAC's suck, Linux Rules, Mirosoft is OK. I know MAC's are based on linux, but Mac's will end up the same as microsoft if they had the same market share.
