    Can I ask one question:

    What is wrong with microsoft? Don't you think it's childish to use Micro$hite everytime you refer to it? What happened to the original name? I never call apple, crapple now do I?

    It most certainly does to me.

    I have to work with their products because of work and because their products are not stable and full of flaws they make us often lose an incredible amount of time. I also hate their way of doing business and the fact that they can not provide us with really efficient and stable products when they have the money and the power to do so. It is just my pet hate, it might by childish to call them like that, but sometimes I like being a big kid :p:)

    Which products? You might have been able to say that Windows 95, for example, was unstable but things have actually come along since then.

    Ok I agree it is getting much better, but XP is far from being that stable, secure and effeicient. Make any home user life easier for sure, but my point of view on their products is on professional use.

    XP is fairly stable in my opinion. I can't remember the last time I was using an XP machine that crashed due to a software error. Security-wise it depends on how you use it, but if you look elsewhere such as Mac OS then we can see that even that can fall to viruses sometimes, and the disparity is probably due to how many folk use each one.

    I work in a windows-based environment with windows server products, and most of them are far more stable than some of the apps that our suppliers give us to run on top of them.

    I think a lot of the "i hate microsoft" that you see around these days is inbuilt based on what people assume to be the cool or savvy thing to say.
