This isn't coming from a fanboy standpoint either - I don't even own an apple machine
When I first looked at the final release of vista, I was actually quite shocked at how little it had moved on. You have to wonder what the microsoft developement boys and girls have been up to for the past seven years really.

Mac OS on the otherhand always brings something new an innovative the the table every release. I mean look at Time Machine, or the new file preview stuff, boot camp, not to mention the improvements in finder.

Vista (which apparently was more or less coded from scratch), could have been a slim, fast memory efficient operating system. Instead its full of bloatware and eats system resources for fun, and well the 64bit version isn't exactly inspiring a lot of support from hardware manufacturers atm is it?
