MS has about some version of it's os on about 90% of all the
personal computers. That is hundreds of millions of installations.
There will always be people that have some combination of hardward
and other software that ms did not anticipate and will cause the
operation system to do something wrong.
At the same time lots of organizations will delay implementing a new
ms operating system. It generally has a lot more to do with their
technical staff being familiar with the new software or their in
house applications not being ready for the new os than problems.
Though some will complain about the problems in the new os as well.
That is not a new phenomenon. It has been happening since windows
3.1. As every version has matured the problems have declined. Simply
because of the sheer volume of installations problems get
more press that the other os'. For everyone with a problem there
are 10s of thousands that have no problems at all. Vista is close
to reaching the 100 million install mark. Obviously it is not a
crisis.



I spent about an hour this past weekend reading about some of the problems
*some* Apple users are having with the latest release of OS X, aka
Leopard. Some Apple folk are having some serious issues. My guess is that
if Apple had the same sized user base for its operating systems as
Microsoft does, and if those Apple users were similar to Windows users,
the number and seriousness of problems would be similar.

If memory serves, I read where Apple has under 5% market share of desktop
PC operating systems.

This used to be a boater newsgroup. There's no requirement that posters
here have any knowledge of a computer OS or in fact have a boat. We have
plenty of boatless posters here who also present as too slow to use a
computer, too.

Very smart!

Read, Jim. It's people like ZDNet, 80% of IT departments, Penn State

You do know, Jim, that with Loogy, you are dealing with a bottom
feeder
about equal to that nutcase from "Thailand" who plagued this
newsgroup a
year or so ago.
His low blow of calling my son a ditch digger while serving honorably
for
our Country as a US Marine defines the type of person Loogie is. I
will
not sink to his level by saying what I really think about him.- Hide

Why would you say a thing like that? Do you somehow believe that
digging ditches is less than honorable?
What would you say about some fat short over the hill guy from
Maryland who hides behind his Bozo's bin and insults and calls people
names? Is that honorable?
Or how about you? Telling lies, making up stories and saying nasty
untrue things about people and even stooping so low that you say
things about someone's wife and school aged children. How honorable is
THAT?
Loogy, think about who you're talking to.

They're not worth an ounce of serenity.

Condoning his low blow John?

No need to reply as you are acting just like him by doing nothing but
constantly insulting some folks here.

2 posts by you today.........2 examples of exactly what I said.


It's either that, or his crappy golf game, or his latest cruise on the
U.S.S. Diaper.


Don't forget his latest muffin recipe.

It doesn't matter if you are the self-proclaimed computer dummy you
claim to be because you have boats and you discuss your boats and
boating issues from time to time. That differentiates you from those
mentioned in the paragraph from me you quoted.

I have two and a half boats, but not for long. x

It is a semi-custom built boat designed by Steve Zimmerman. The
Zimmerman 36 was finished in 2001, but we have continued to update it
annually.
