It does not happen every day that news related to computer technology - news we report on every day - makes its way to the headline news programs and newspapers here in my home country, The Netherlands. So when it does, I am usually on the edge of my seat, simply because it offers an interesting glimpse into how 'normal' people perceive our little world. The last few days, however, that casual interest has made way for something else - tooth gnashing irritation.

As I reading the article and the authors comments on Consumentenbond's recommendations, it struck me that he was missing their point. They said (only from his description) to CONSIDER alternatives like Mac OS X and Ubuntu Linux because of HW and SW issues with MS Vista IF they are going to get something new or ugrading.
I don't think he stressed those two words enough
... CONSIDER
... IF
IMHO a Mac is best for most people ...
but if they want to exercise the muscle between the ears a bit more and stretch their mind ...
Ubuntu Linux is also a very good choice
(as well as other flavors like LinuxMint ... Debian ... Fedora ... Suse ... and also BSD).
