Against both the Microsoft Zune and Rim Blackberry, both of which should have clearly won instead of the iPod and the iPhone. Apple must have bribed the voters, or at least sponsored the event...

Did anyone catch that scathing NYTs article excoriating Vista. I loved that the anonymous victims of the MS OS happened to be technicians or higher ups in the programing or deployment end of the software. Sweet

The fact that Apple designs and wins awards for many of the planet's finest consumer electronics is no surprise. They attempt to make products they'd like themselves. MS on the other hand wants to squeeze every last cent out of their victims.

It's a corporate culture thing. Ballmer-think vs. Jobs-think. Ives and Apples technologists are-design wise-miles ahead of the competition.

hate to break it to yah but every single software update apple has released, had always had issues. this time, my macbook pro won't recognize my external display's native resolution. go look in the apple forums. this is an issue that apple has not released any explanation until now.

Here is the deal. If you're comparing a MB pro bug to the overall craptacularness of Vista, you can only be a troll.

So, here's what you do. Go, dump the MB Pro and get yourself a Wintel box-problem solved. I'm sure you'll find no problems with Vista and it's compatibility. No bugs there.

There hasn't been an OS yet that is all things to all people. If you read the times article, the people who had issues with Vista, were--if fact--it's creators. I haven't had a problem with my MB Pro or MB or iMac insofar as recognizing any peripheral. Could a resolution not be recognized? Yes. Does that make the Mac OS comparable to Vista? No. I figure you for a troll.

bwa ha ha ha... i've been an ardent defender of apple in these forums and here we are, someone calling me a troll because i called a spade a spade. right.

here's what you do: click on my profile and look and read ALL my posts. now, does that look like trolling to you?

the only thing you've proven here is that you're a lemming.

Obviously, you didn't read. If-in fact-your not a troll, then you're just monumentally petty. "Ohh my MB Pro can't get native resolution-waaaa! By this logic Vista must be the better OS." Talk about convoluted thought process.

Yeah, I like Macs and I've had my problems with them too, but nothing like the snakepit that is Windows. Also, I saw your posts nothing there paints much of a pro Mac profile. Troll

Apple submitted nine designs and won awards for eight of them? Does anyone know what the ninth was?

did you even read my first post? who are you quoting? all i said was that apple isn't immune to glitches. where in my post did i conclude that vista was better because of this? come on. SHOW ME.

i suppose an apple bug to you is also a feature?

if your first mac is an imac (judging from your reply), i'm about 12 years ahead of you buddy. compared to me, you're simply a noob to the mac platform. end of story.

It was probably the Macbook Air
