Some of you people need to lighten up and quit taking everything so seriously. (thats pointed at one individual really....) There are far worse things than smoking a joint and sitting in a bean bag chair eating funyuns all day.

Can't seem to get the Sidebar to change to the new style that came with WB6. I tried applying it many times, unloading and reloading WB, even a reboot.

Or are you maintaining that this security hole is somehow related to the aesthetic design of Apple's products? Yes, that is correct. The iPhone's code was a branch off from Leopard no? What does that say about their ability to code a secure OS? You don't hear reports on the news saying Windows Moble was hacked do you? Pretty much shoots down any fanboys arguement about Apple's "good" security. (No im not calling you or anyone here a fanboy..<im

Interesting perspective. I can't think of anybody who would choose Vista over XP though. Could you elaborate over why you have Vista instead of XP. Came with a new comp and you were forced maybe? Nah, I stay clear from proprietary hardware like its the plague. I upgraded to it immediately after its release. I find it to be a far superior OS. I have no problems and havent even throughout the beta process. Oh and I thought I'd mention that even t

It all comes down to personal preference, but thats only if you're using Windows XP. If your going to use Windows Vista then its ATi hands down. Nvidia has had nothing but horrible drivers for the OS. I waited 5 months for some decent drivers before I gave up and went to ATi.

you mean vista isn't like winblows XP where you have a certain activation limit? so i can do a fresh install & activate my copy of vista like a thousand one times and it won't give me that "you've reached your activation limit" BS? No BS at all. As long as its on the same machine with no hardware changes you can reformat as many times as you like. But you can re-activate 10 times if new hardware is put in. And by hardware I mean CPU/Motherboard

bullshit.I'm not leaving XP for Vista til something I just HAVE to do cant be done on XP How about support from Microsoft? You think they wont discontinue support for things like UPDATES next year? Think again.

It'll get droped Im sure. Just like them wanting to add an activation limit to Vista, people complained so much that they scraped it entirely. I'll say 2012 at the earliest! It could be 2020 and I'd still stick with XP over Vista And in a year or so you'll be completely alone.

Yeah right, 3 years is unlikely. Always add atleast another year onto what they predict will be the release date. And your wrong about 32bit. I heard serious speculation to it being strictly 64bit. Windows Vista was the last 32 bit operating system. EDIT: http://www.microsoft-watch.com/content/server/microsoft_looks_to_64bit_future.html Whoops sorry I was a bit wrong, Server 2008 is the last 32 bit OS. Guess I can safely say its NOT speculation.

Nice try, but no. Though I did expect someone to say that, typical fanboy responce. It wasn't long ago their was OS X 9 which every other month would decide to whipe your entire hard disk clean forcing you to start over. It was less stable than Windows 98, and since Windows 98 was an utter piece of trash one can only guess what OS X 9 was. You know.. I could see a linux user bashing Windows, but an OS X user? Come back when they've coded their own kernal rather than starting off wit
