So I picked up the Windows 7 release candidate and dual-booted it on my netbook.

Microsoft finally fixed Vista.

Still, it turned a LOT of people away from Microsoft forever.

True that.  I tried Vista for a week before going back to XP.

I'm installing this "Virtual XP Mode" thingy now.

Do you have the statistics and the proof to back this up?

It did turn people away, you can see it in the rising Mac sales. However it only turned away some consumers, enterprise will stay Windows for sure. But anyway, as much as a Mac fan that I am I'm currently using Windows 7 right now (I've had it since they released the public beta) and there are pieces of it that I wish OS X had, I'm extremely pleased!

I'm not sure why one would ever expect to change enterprises to a Mac. Windows is THE business computer.

I'm not thrilled with OS 10 either, which is mainly why I stick with OS 9 and below. Basing OS X on NeXTSTEP and UNIX was not the greatest idea, IMO. It closed several doors and opened up few windows.

Man, CSS is incredibly annoying. <_<

I'd do everything in HTML if CSS didn't have its perks...

A note of advice to all my friends: NEVER try or drink Diet Crush orange soda. It's nasty, and I just threw up from it.  :sick: :sick:
