"In the first head-to-head comparison of trying to accomplish a task with Mac OS and Vista in this series, the new Windows operating system fell flat on its face. Migrating from an XP installation was halted by repeated failures of the Windows Easy Transfer application when used with a network connection and a so-called Easy Transfer Cable. I finally gave up and used Lenovo's System Migration Assistant."

>What about menu always on top, i didn't like it specially because there is no permanent menu like windows which i can use to launch applications quickly or may be i didn't use it long enough.
You're right - You didn't use it long enough, or didn't RTFM. The Finder leads to the Applications folder, where all applications get installed. (Hint - the Finder is on the Dock by default - you can't miss it unless you are sleeping.)
>Anyways in 1 day i was bored with it...
Oh yeah, you're quite the "tester".
>when you minimize an app, it becomes an icon so if you have two of the same application you can't really distinguish them. Windows uses title for each window and that helps a lot switching to that window.
Are you sure you were using OSX or just dreaming of it? When you minimize an application in OSX, it goes to the Dock, and tells you what each icon is during mouse flyover.
>XP serves my needs so why bother...
... He said, as he downloaded his <almost> daily virus patches, defragmented his harddrive, and cleaned the gunk out of his registry.
