This one will go into the record books for illustrating just how
poorly
Vista is working. This major goof was in front of investors and the
media no less! More news on this tomorrow!

No wonder it won't ship for awhile, it's a MESS!

LOL! How steamed are you going to be when it sells more on its first
day of release

When do you predict that will be?

It doesn't matter.

Right. Duck the question.

Not giving you the answer that you want is not ducking the question.

But not giving an answer at all certainly is.

The answer I gave you is above for anyone interested to see. That you
don't like it, or more likely, don't understand it doesn't mean that
you didn't get one.

What means I didn't get an answer is the fact that you didn't provide
one.




The best part is that we have a long thread where
Maccies are wailing that a website hosted on an OS X machine being
compromised says nothing about MacOS X and a thread declaring that

Because it *did* say nothing about Mac OS X.

Wait for it...


Vista is bad because an app running on it screwed up. Could the Maccie
double standard be better illustrated?

Is that an app running on Vista? Or is it a service that you're supposed
to be able to use in any application. Because if it's the former, it's
truly lame.

...LOL! You just can't give up your double standard can you?

I have displayed no double standard.

LOL! You have more double standards than everyone else I've come
across put together.

Someone used an application not even supplied by Apple

So all of the bragging about Apache being on the MacOS X CD was a lie
then?

Apache wasn't what failed. See if you can find the facts.


and that application had flaws versus a major new
feature of Vista -- which it turns out most definitely *is* a part of
the OS -- screwed up in front of hundreds of people.

So all of the Maccies' braying about the OS actually just being the
kernel and everything else was just apps layered on top in an attempt
to disprove that it was even possible for Microsoft to integrate IE
into the OS were just lies?

How do you make that rather incredible leap. And it is a huge
non-sequitur.

A bit late, but thanks for the confession.


[Insert all of your whiny excuses and declarations of 'its totally
different when it happens on MacOS X' here.]

Nothing happened to Mac OS X, so I don't see why I'd say anything here.

Especially when you posted it above.




than MacOS X has in its lifetime?
