Grandpa, I imagine MacDonalds is the #No I restaurant in the world. I'm not personally convinced it is also the best<G>

Have a great week-end!

Personally I do not know that windows is the best never used the rest so I cannot say. But I do believe that it is a personal preference issue every article that I have ever read by people who appear to be Unibus point out good and bad attributes of all OS and to date I still haven't seen where one OS is better than the other. And yes MS does have security flaws as does all other OS and people talk about how many compared to other OS.
One comment to think about. If I were a hacker and I wanted information I would imagine that I would try to hack windows since most of the world business use windows and therefore my odds of getting information would be far greater. Why would I waste my time on hacking something that at best might yield some individuals personal information. Any OS CAN BE HACKED from what I understand it is no more difficult to hack one than the other but the rewards are far greater for one than the rest.

And a good weekend to you Hobo

and that Grandpa is why, as well as loving my Mac to bits, (as they say in all the day time chat shows), I feel a lot more safe using it than I would a PC Really should get some sleep ... this looks more like a yawn to me so

Just for the laugh of it, name me one single Mac OSX virus. There are none! But as you said every OS has it's good points & everybody has their preferences. I'm not detracting from people's preferences b/c it's a silly argument & many will never be swayed despite the problems they may incur. Beside this has nothing to do with the original poster's question. lol

hehe, this reminds me of the "new" avalanche program/project that m$ has said they would put together (just another vaporware app) that copies off the logistics of BT, but is supposedly more "efficient" than BT's current implementation.
