This is the best they could come up with? A couple of them are right on, but mostly this is a fluff piece

Freejazz,

To be fair their "10 Things We Love/Hate about Macs" was equally a fluff piece. Just go with the flow.

10 Things We Hate About Microsoft

Bill Gates IS a role model -- he made billions, and is using almost all of it to fight AIDS and other diseases in impoverished areas like Africa. So-called REMOVED and "cool people" like Steve Jobs don't do a fraction of that.

Furthermore what is so great about college? I dropped out, and earn about $200,000 U.S./year. College can help, but is not necessary. Pursue your dreams, screw everything else.

What a bad article. I have quibbles with other aspects, but this one takes the cake.

decent enough

they were right about alot of things.number 10 should be number1 thou.windows gets heavier and heavier with each instalment.most of the software that comes with their operating systems i never use myself.
Why can't they come up with a very basic operating system, and then let you download the features you want?
My mothe in law's new dell computer came with so much stuff, and it wasn't even the bloatware dell likes to add to you computer.I t was all the programs she would never use! all she uses it for is to look at her pictures from her digital camera, talk on msn with her children on the other side of the country, and check her e-mail.this could all be acomplished with a fairly light OS.
