Windows Journalist Takes On Tiger
BRSQUIRRL writes "Paul Thurrott has posted a review of Mac OS X 'Tiger' on his SuperSite for Windows. He gives it a score of 4 out of 5. Interesting to get a Microsoft Windows journalist's take on Tiger, especially one as hardcore as Thurrott. In the article, he actually confesses that he has 'been a Mac fan [his] entire life.' Interesting, considering some of his criticism of Apple's work in the past."

Not really. He's a Microsoft talking head - he's paid to pimp Bill's stuff and shun everyone else's.
Never be surprised at human behavior when a paycheck is involved.

rediculous.
Hey! wake up the next story is up you lazy arse.
"the platform is x86"
That doesn't appear on any boxes of software I see in the stores. Windows is the platform, and everybody on that platform is dancing to Microsoft's tune.
Why yes, I AM a rocket scientist!
What a bunch of horseshit. OS X has more in common with Longhorn than with Win XP. In fact that's where MSFT is stealing Longhorn features from, down to the frickin' analog clock. And Longhorn is what, 1.5 years away (which in reality probably means either 2 years or major feature cuts)?
Only their ilife apps are the equivolent of half-assed windows shareware. They're ridiculously lacking in features and not worth anything to sell. But they don't have to, since they can knock them out all the time and cash in on the idiots who buy their shit no matter the cost.
