Interesting George, I feel vindicated  :)

Regarding Mr Aldous'comments about stability, I'm not interested in the whole boring Win vs Mac thing and either way I dont really care which OS I use, the apps are whats important to me. That said, it is quite funny to read the opinion that Windows (of any flavour) is more stable than Unix. I guess..... what else could he say?

"One of the things that people say an awful lot about the Apple Mac is that the OS is fantastic, that it's very graphical and easy to use. What we've tried to do with Windows 7 – whether it's traditional format or in a touch format – is create a Mac look and feel in terms of graphics."

Microsoft has been trying to "create a Mac look and feel" since, well, pretty much Day One - and fails miserably every time. Even their TV commercials are little more than weak-kneed responses to Apple's ads.
