I kind of like Windows 7. Snow Leopard must be really hot. I am not going to try it until you give a few more hands on opinions. Keep up the good work.

The digs on Windows are
The digs on Windows are getting a little old and obvious. Come someone please work on new material.
Well.. MS is working hard on
Well.. MS is working hard on new screw-ups so there will be new material soon...
I must say , this sheet is kinda lame .. they could have come up with more ideas ... like "minimum RAM required" or something .... Windows 7 (vista + new skin) probably idles at 1gig memory ....
I mean, the way windows is going ... youre gonna need SSD worth of RAM just to have enough memory to start the thing up.
Gaffs about the memory use,
Gaffs about the memory use, although valid, are old now.
Only a name change?
I understand Apple calling their next OS Snow Leopard to show it's a step up from Leopard with it's ZFS file system, etc. Though I don't understand what is the difference between Microsoft's Vista and their next OS called Windows 7. It looks like the same OS with only the name changed.
One difference in 7 is lower
One difference in 7 is lower system requirements and ram use.
Snow Leopard will not be supporting any pre-intel machines so it won't work on your PowerBook.
Ever since Ballmer has been
Ever since Ballmer has been head of the company, things have gone way down hill. I don't care what PC lovers say. Mac OS 10 may be a narrow end-to-end solution, but it is way more cohesive than Windows Vista will ever be. Releasing a new Windows OS will not heal the wounds of Vista or get the company out of the hole that they are in. Apple is winning because they connect with the average person in a way that he or she can understand. If you need to be a nerd to run or understand an OS, it is not worth using!
