Windows I am waiting for Longhorn. Thus, I was very interested in the new 4051 build. Here are my findings.

The Gap
by Sabon on Thu 13th Nov 2003 23:06 UTC

Linux will be much more mature by then. And if anything the gap will be smaller or Linux will have actually passed Windows by then.

So you think I'm a Linux user? Well, I use Lindows 4.0 (not ROOT) as part time play machine. But my main machine is a 800mhz G4 iMac Lamp with Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther). This is also going to be more mature and with three, four, or maybe even five more major updates between now and then (OS X 10.7 or 10.8?), MS will be desperately trying to keep up with the new looks Apple puts out while trying more and more to have more and more propriatary restrictions.

No thanks. I'll stick to other OSs. And yes, if you can see, my work machine is a Mac G3 tower with Panther and I have no problems getting all my work done (including communcating with people that have Office XP) without problems.

Windows isn't any fun. You have to work around too much of what I want to do and MS doesn't want me to do.

What is my job at work? Seriously. I fix XP machines all day long. Hmmm. I've never had to fix my Mac OS X machines...

Not trolling. Just the facts.
