If you want to nit pick, I can point out flaws in every single OS we have currently available. They're all as crap as each other but for different reasons just like they are as good as each other based on different features.
- unalone 18y agoThey're all as crap as each other Condensed rant: I HATE lines like this. We're talking about millions of lines of code that let you do anything you want to by looking at a screen and typing. When I was a kid I used a friend's typewriter and thought that was the coolest thing I'd ever used, and now I have TextEdit. There are flaws in everything. OS X has this flaw where it's not clear that I can only encode a certain length of video onto a DVD no matter how compressed I make the files. That's tolerable if a bit annoying the first time. Meanwhile, Ubuntu has this flaw where sound won't play, and where to install sound I have to go to Terminal, and if I type Bad Things into the terminal my hard drive will melt. If I have a choice between "slightly confusing DVD burning options" and "may melt a hard drive" I'll go for the slightly confusing thing. (Also, I assure you: I nit pick far worse than you do. I'm aware of every small little thing on OS X that irritates me.)
- pierrefar 18y ago_There are flaws in everything._ That's exactly my point. Sorry if my wording wasn't as eloquent as it could be. Personally I use Ubuntu, Win Vista and OSX for various reasons and have love/hate relationship with all of them. Happy to compare nit picks :)
