And who like you, don't really understand much about neither hardware, nor software, believe in myths about "nearly immune OS" and other BS from Apple And ready to shell out twice the money for the same stuff. All that aside, just that comment alone makes explains perfectly why a lot of folks think apple fans, at least a lot of them are way too smug.

Upgrading Apple OS is more expensive. Especially given Apple's smuggy stance(with which you agree) on backwards compatibility. That is forcing the users to replace 3 year old hardware because... So, in what world all that is cheaper or more user friendly I dunno, besides Apple zealot land of course.

As an added bonus they don't have to resort to bribery in order to get people to pick up their products.

No, Apple resorts to lies about both, their own product capabilities, and competitors product as well.

Jeeezzzz. What is wrong with U anyway? In a discussion about piracy and copyright you had to bring up child molesters and rapists repeatedly... In a discussion about software and hardware you being up prostitutes.
So, what does Apple do, check every buyer's criminal record?

P.S. So, did you figure out what was "parroted" by Vista or not yet?
