ok so in conclusion, Apple STILL sucks, and just in case any more arguments about this arise in the future, Apple will always suck, so we don't need to carry this on any longer, mmmmk?

ok I'm pretty neutral in the Apple vs. PC debate. However I came across this article on digg talking about the new version of bootcamp and I just couldn't get past how he starts off, it is just too ridiculous:

Last week I upgraded to Apple Bootcamp 1.4 for our Kitchen iMac. I think Apple has already become the best PC OEM. Why?

Well take a look at the new volume graphic that appears when you use the Volume Up and Down keys...






Wow...I mean Apple has nicer volume/eject buttons, I need to buy me one right?

Is anyone else wondering why this guy has an iMac in his kitchen? Must be one of those san francisco waste my money assholes.

See, that's the crap that makes Apple users sound like incompetent idiots.

I do like this article on Vista and Office 2007: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2007/08/18.html

(not to start a Mac/PC war, I just thought it was funny)

ya can't please people I guess. you do it simliar, they cry about how there's nothing new. you do it a new way, they cry about having to learn something new. and lets spend over 1/2 the article crying about the box...

i personally use office 07 and like it. while the menu setup takes some getting used to, it does make a lot more sense.

Office 2007 I like. Windows Vista isn't necessarily a bad piece of software. It's just that there are far too many compatibility issues with hardware and software at this point.

yeah that was lame. guess it was pretty tough for him to come up with 300 words to write about both office and vista.

anyone who can't figure out how to open the box shouldn't be allowed around any computer, mac or pc.

Well, I agree but he runs a very successful software firm and actually doesn't use a Mac, he's a Windows guy, as are his developers. It appears he was attempting to play devil's advocate.
