I'm considering getting one of the new MacBooks [link], but I've never used Mac OS X, and was wondering if someone can give me what they like about it compared to Windows. [Yes, I've read EVERYTHING I could find on the internet.] I just want some human opinion.
Another thing. I was considering using Boot Camp to triple boot it, so I have OS X/XP/Ubuntu on it, and was curious as to how easy it is to upgrade the OS after you trpple boot. Thanks guys. |

OS X vs. Windows on appearance is opinion based, as I personally thing that OS X icons are too large and thus ugly.
Probably my only major gripe about Windows comes from when you're looking for what hardware your computer has, as for a long time I couldn't find what soundcard I had. In the end I figured out that my soundcard is built into my motherboard, and Windows wasn't telling me this. I don't know if OS X tells you things like this, but it's definitely something I don't like Windows for. This post has been edited by Yuka: Oct 31 2008, 08:27 PM ~~~ [20:15] Irysa: I hate myself
