That quiz you mention is terribly long winded and uses insufferable political language. I found this short test linked from the Dennis Kucinich web site. It's centered on 25 key issues and takes only a few minutes of your time.
Dr. Lederman is the Nobel laureate who was interviewed on Slashdot several years ago. If you haven't read that interview, you owe it to yourself to do so now.
Windows has hundreds of thousands of known viruses and trojans, but the malware for MacOS X can be counted on your fingers. Just because Apple periodically publishes security updates doesn't mean that these vulnerabilites have ever been found outside of security labs and been exploited in the wild.
Instead of yet another JavaScript test I would like to see a comparison of rendering speeds for once. Opera 9.2 is absolutely horrible when it comes to scrolling speed, almost an order of magnitude slower than the rest. I wrote a page that autoscrolls in response to user input, with a little plane flying around the screen. It's unusable in Opera, but smoothly animated in every other browser I tried.

How brilliant to call someone a fucktard and to point to BSD Unix as a poster child for innovation.
