I Wouldn't know how bf3 runs on a mac (or if it even does) I don't waste my time playing games.

I don't know if I'd use the word perfect, but I agree that there might be some people out there for whom a windows computer might be sufficient. Then again they could also be perfectly suited by a tablet too.

For anyone who happens to be using OS X 10.5 and needs to do a complete backup (say if you setup a new time machine), be sure to exclude the backup drive from spotlight before you start backing up or it will literally take over a hundred times longer to do the backup.

Yes, because in this brave new world of Gawker commenting there is no reason not to. Great isn't it?

Actually I'll happily use anything not windows, and primarily use macs. But nice try.

Oh you know things built into every other OS, like ssh and all the other terminal commands required by POSIX.

They added built in pdf support (FINALLY!) but still left out: ssh, quicklook style extensible file previewing, POSIX compliance (not just the terminal applications but also decent low level network and filesystem APIs), whole OS scripting and automation, virtual desktops (spaces/expose or mission control style:…

Judgement based on use, I've used Win8 (and all prior versions) and they all lack basic functionality.

As of yet they're still missing all (but one) of the things I need from an OS that they always have been missing.

Nah windows has always had higher requirements than linux, so if you want to talk lowest common denominator...

I laughed too.

Apple doesn't control a majority share of the market.

So when win 8 is crappy on the surface we can all agree it's Microsoft's fault?

Not yet. Says so on the app store page, should be an update in the near future.

That's been there for years.

Or Apple is throwing out decoys to fuck with us because they already said they'd be stepping up security?
