Let me make it clear. I'm not a fan of Apple. I think that their products are overhyped, overpriced and underperforming. If you're looking for a fair unbiased opinion, you're looking in the wrong place. You've been warned. So, I was at Steve Jobs' 2004 WWDC keynote yesterday, attempting to take pictures for OSNews (an amazingly hard task, by the way, which really explained why people pay big bucks for big lenses equipped with image stabilizers). UPDATE: Stop reading right there, I have rewritten & updated the article here.

<quote>Like I said, only backend improvements (kernel), and some little additions. Very small transition for the consumer. I saw very little differences, but did notice the better stability and a few new apps. Other than that, nothing major. Maybe it was bigger for the developer, but for the consumer it was a small upgrade.</quote>
Well, there is no difference to a user between Ford T and Mercedes S-classe. The same four wheels, seats, engine, steering wheel and pedals.
MS did a great job to make Windows working in real x86 mode, and then was constantly improving its OS. Back that time MacOS was 32-bit system and Windows was 16-bit real mode thingy. But Windows improved a lot, MS engineers squeezed every possibility out of Intel chips, while maintaining almost 100% compatibility all the way, and I truly respect MS for their job.
