I'm not a pro or con-Microsoft (or Apple), but this guy is simply... hilarous.

Lately I have found Apple computers more and more interesting.

If the game developers and software companies would come onboard we would be in business.

Regardless of where MS got the idea, Vista sure is pretty to use.

to be fair, Apple isn't all that original either.
contrary to popular belief, they didn't invent the Windows, nor the Mouse, with the Lisa and the Mac.
they "stole" these ideas from Xerox.
but they sure did improve the concepts a lot, gotta give them credit for that. M$ botches good things up.

Meh, I tried VMWare Fusion and didn't really like it. I'm sticking with Parallels.

Yeah, I think parallels is better now, but I believe that VMware end with a better product in the future.

One of the Thinks tha I like from VMwqre is that I can use the Disk Images across the other Plattaforms, So the same Images to use Linux, XP or other Windows.

With Parallels I cand use their Images with other Host OS :(
