 Microsoft vs. the rest - rtj70
When some of us on here say we like Apple Macs (laptops or desktops) some such as Zero will have an opinion (sorry to pick on you Z). The argument is the hardware is similar to what a Windows type PC would have and a lot lot more expensive. Ignoring the excellent laptop construction of Apple's current products (cut from solid aluminium instead of flimsy plastic) there seems to be a lot of negativity. The difference for those that like the Apple Operating Environment is the software.

I would love to know of the Apple haters' experience of Mac OS X of late. Bear in mind that Mac OS X is Unix, based on the Mach kernel and effectively BSD Unix. A cut-down spin-off from Mac OS X is now called iOS. This iOS runs on iPods (touch), iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. But it is Mac OS X but cut down.

So why is iOS really good (and not say the Linux based Android)? But Mac OS X is crap compared to Windows or Linux?

Confused.
