It isn't even close.....

Ok, had my first real exposure to Microsoft's Vista.......It to me is not even close how much better an OS is OSX to this piece of crap. I think XP was making some headways, but Vista really!!!
First of all things are completely not in the old place they used to be. I have never used a Macintosh or Linux computer, and I have been using Macs for almost 20 years, where I could not figure my way around the new OS in under two minutes without opening a book. I have no idea what Redmond was thinking by this complete re-arranging of stuff in Vista. Not to mention in this half an hour not only could I not get to configure a Wireless Secure connection that wasn't broadcasting its SSID (God forbid you decide to make your network a little more secure), but even trying to right click disable the wireless connection or enable it caused a complete OS crash.....Goes to show that the unfortunately we live in a world where quantity (that is the market share) over quality still rules.
By the way, Apple's Security Ad about the annoying security prompts of Vista was not only humourous but completely correct. What a pain in the ass it is.
