Mac OS X Versus Windows Vista, The Rematch

Posted by Zonk on from the let's-get-it-on dept.

An anonymous reader writes "InformationWeek follows up its widely read review where Mac OS X beat out Windows Vista in a head-to-head comparison, with a reader debate on which is really the superior operating system. From the article: 'Mac users love venting about Windows... Any company that calls their techs "geniuses" thrive in forums like this. They think they are "cool" and "hip," they don't care about the fact that they have to reset the permissions and turn on Appletalk every five minutes. Windows Vista all the way. If Windows sucks soooo much, how come more people are familiar with it than Mac OS X? Last time I checked, Windows wasn't just a business operating system. Tons upon tons of people use it and like it.'"

    Wow, a non-article written by non-authors.

    If these are the most intelligent comments that Information Week could dig up, maybe they should have thought twice about publishing them in an article.
