I don't understand why everything in Mac OS is organized by "file, edit, options, etc" and which "file/edit/options/etc" depends on which window you're in, so getting to any sort of a root menu (especially when you have multiple windows opened up) becomes a pain in the ass.
Because putting it on every window is a waste of valuable screen real estate. if you can't figure out that the bar at the top reflects which window is active maybe you shouldn't be using a computer in the first place

The Windows OS has its flaws, but its interface just makes more sense than Mac -- much more sense than some esoteric "double click here or click a combination of funny looking esoteric symbols on the keyboard like a clover-leaf that simply aren't congruent with any sort of logic". The "Windows" button sort of make's sense - it 'windows' out of whatever 'window' you are in. But the clover leaf button? Why the fuck is it a clover leaf?

Going through elementary school in the mid 90s, I had more than one opportunity to test out both the mac and windows OS, and you want to know which one made more sense, and the one which every peer of mine agreed as being 'better' to use? Windows OS.

I remember thinking as early as 5 years old, "Why the fuck does this button do this?" when using a macintosh, but then attempting to do the same thing on windows and being able to figure it out without issue.
So you made your descision based on looks and layout over core functionality, the same thing people like to criticize apple users for?

The people who designed the windows OS interface designed it to be more intuitive. Ultimately, once you have become so familiar with both operating systems that you know how to do everything on both, it's just a matter of how fast each is. So what does Mac bring to the table?
Well, Mac "doesn't" have viruses, because no one who matters uses Macs so who the fuck would write viruses for Macs?
It doesn't have virus problems for the same reason linux doesn't, because it's a better, more secure, more solid system at every level.

A shitload of software isn't compatible with Macs, and Mac is the one who dropped the ball on this one as far as I'm concerned...
Actually when you factor in how easy it is to run or port over *nix software OSX has a much larger library of programs than Windows does.

Mac STILL isn't fully compatible with Flash and such -- these are things that have been around for more than 10 years; it's time to get with the fucking program
what the christ are you talking about? you're not going to win arguments by hardcore just making shit up. flash works exactly the same as it does on any other desktop OS and has since I started using osx in 2006.
