Most institutions, governments, etc all use XP. The only reason they want to "move on" is so they can focus on supporting their new OS and perhaps make a profit (god forbid they try to make some money). Microsoft didn't back "Parallels", it just had no legitimate reason to go against it. Besides, having Windows running on a Mac only increases Window's market share. |

I just like Mac because it's more customizable, doesn't accumulate viruses, easy maintenance, environmentally friendly, lasts longer, and I get 3 updates every week. Apple has me covered as far as a computer goes. I have this mac: http://www.apple.com/macmini/ |

Apple is releasing 4 new products this summer, be prepared. --- End quote --- 4 Products, like what? --- Quote from: Maximum on May 24, 2009, 11:44:35 AM ---http://www.apple.com/macmini/ --- End quote --- Cute. Edit: Anyways back to Windows 7 besides PC vs Maximum war. The Solve PC Issues flag at the bottom is kinda pointless but funny. It just told me I need to scan and update :P. |
