And what's wrong with being a Linux hater  I hate what I want and I'm proud of it! Damn you iTunes! I like OS X Server because it's 100 times simpler to use (for what I want it for) than Windows and is alot more robust. I accidently unplugged a PowerMac set up as a server one time as it was connected to a few hundred clients and it just laughed at me and rebooted. I did the same thing with in Windows and the machine never turned back on.  I don't hate Linux, it just doesn't offer anything over XP so I don't see the point in installing an otherwise redunant operating system alongside a functional one. Some people like Linux because they don't get viruses...I just avoid porn websites and freeware. Has about the same effect.  Hahaha poor windows server! Yeah I have to admit, I find all OS' have their usefulness in specific situations. I'll admit, Linux OS' at home just don't appeal to me. I mean how can you argue with Windows.. It's EVERYWHERE, everything's made for it, and well it's just easy to use. Don't get me wrong Linux is great and stuff. But I prefer it in my work environment where I CAN fiddle around with it. I prefer Solaris on the servers at work. I find the windows servers are a little more troublesome to use with drivers and remote access and so on. I'd be quite interested in trying OS X Server out. I like to try out new things and see how they compare. Slatts wrote:I never kid about that. Ask my booky. As for that?! What the heck? I'm not sure how good OS X Server would be for you, accessing multiple servers at once. I mostly prefer it because workgroup manager comes with it and works brilliantly.

Four courses of horses for dinner?!
I dunno I reckon horse meat would be pretty stringy, but I'll try anything once!
That's why I'd still like to try OS X server, at least see how it works. HA! the transition from the horse thing to OS X there was just seamless!
Anyway, I wonder how much the licence for OS X costs.. also how widely it's used in the Enterprise scene..

and more than a little frightening  I've done a little work at a local abattoir that slaughters horses for pet meat. The bloke who runs it is bloody scary. I don't think he speaks French though

I've got a mixture happening here at home.
I myself use XP on my desktop and 7 on my laptop.
Two of my children are running XP, the other is running 7.
My wife uses OS X Leopard on her Macbook.
Me personally, I prefer 7 and will be converting everyone sometime in the near future. Probably over the Xmas holidays when I have enough time to dedicate to it.
I expected something magical from my wife's Macbook. If you listen to the Mac supporters out there you'll have yourself thinking that they are the solution to all of the world's problems. But it's been no where near the perfect that Mac fans tote them as. In fact, it has been no end of frustration and she would have tossed it months ago if it wasn't for her work.

I agree. 64bit 7 is great.
- and Macs are frustrating...
If it can't be fixed with old fencing wire, buy some new fencing wire...
