    Apple - Boot Camp

    Wowie wow wow wow wow:

    More and more people are buying and loving Macs. To make this choice simply irresistible, Apple will include technology in the next major release of Mac OS X, Leopard, that lets you install and run the Windows XP operating system on your Mac. Called Boot Camp (for now), you can download a public beta today.

    Microsoft Vista will ignore your monitor

    A scheme to punish windows pirates also punishes everyone who doesn’t have a brand new monitor, not letting them use windows vista.

    Why Does Windows Still Suck? / Why do PC users put up with so many viruses and worms? Why isn't everyone on a Mac?

    This happened to my dad’s computer when he snuck a dial-up connection (and bypassed my firewall) because the cable was down. Ugh! Windows!

    Here, then, is my big obvious question: Why the hell do people put up with this? Why is there not some massive revolt, some huge insurrection against Microsoft? Why is there not a huge contingent of furious users stomping up to Seattle with torches and scythes and crowbars, demanding the Windows Frankenstein monster be sacrificed at the altar of decent functionality and an elegant user interface?

    Gets a little ranty near the end, but I hope I never have to put up with a windows machine full time. Heres a nice analogy:

    Here is your brand new car, sir. Drive it off the lot. Yay yay new car. Suddenly, new car shuts off. New car barely starts again and then only goes about 6 miles per hour and it belches smoke and every warning light on the dashboard is blinking on and off and the tires are screaming and the heater is blasting your feet and something smells like burned hair. You hobble back to the dealer, who only says, gosh, sorry, we thought you knew—that’s they way they all run. Enjoy!

    CodeWeavers - CrossOver Office

    Run windows applications (like iTunes!) on linux? And it’s open source, but I bet a pain to compile. Nice.
