I know that it doesn't. And, I guess, someone with a 6 year old Mac might care. Even Macs last longer than that. crazy

By default rather than definition, and that will not last long.

Well I will agree with your point that Macs have a far greater lifespan than the junk spewn forth by PC makers. It is good that you finally conceed this.

And you will even conceed the fact that Apple took the decision to move onto the Intel platform wisely, although you would as ever much rather live in the past.

You may be happy with a 5 year old, outdated PC, most Mac users are more choosey and wish to stay upstream of technology.

They see the need as their OS (in particular) and software (in general) is severly lacking, and, they have a prominent history in trying to copy others rather than innovating themselves.

Bill Gates, and M$ as a whole are not the saints you try to paint them to be, and have indeed spent most of the past 20+ years stealing from others and profiting from doing so.

Nor was Steve Jobs a saint. The GUI on which both OS are based was developed by Xerox
Apple also licensed software, on which windows OS is based, to Mirosoft.

Wut?!? Apple are notoriously bad at keeping up with, or even using, the latest technology.

They really know how to make pretty PC's though.
